Method

Grilling Chicken

  1. 1

    Marinate the Chicken

    In a bowl, combine olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Add the chicken breasts and coat them well. Let marinate for at least 30 minutes.

  2. 2

    Preheat the Grill

    Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.

  3. 3

    Grill the Chicken

    Place the marinated chicken breasts on the grill and cook for 6-7 minutes per side or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C). Remove from the grill and let rest before slicing.

Mashed Potatoes

  1. 4

    Prepare the Potatoes

    Peel and cut the potatoes into chunks. Place them in a pot of salted water and bring to a boil.

  2. 5

    Cook the Potatoes

    Cook the potatoes for about 15-20 minutes, or until fork-tender. Drain the water.

  3. 6

    Mash the Potatoes

    In a bowl, combine the drained potatoes with butter, milk, salt, and black pepper. Mash until smooth and creamy.

Cooking Broccoli

  1. 7

    Steam the Broccoli

    In a steamer basket over boiling water, steam the broccoli florets for about 5-7 minutes until bright green and tender-crisp. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with salt before serving.

Preparing Side Salad

  1. 8

    Assemble the Salad

    In a large bowl, combine mixed greens, halved cherry tomatoes, and sliced cucumber.

  2. 9

    Dress the Salad

    In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, balsamic vinegar, salt, and black pepper. Pour over the salad and toss gently to combine.

Final Touches
