Method

Grilled Chicken Breast

  1. 1

    Prepare the Marinade

    In a bowl, combine olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, salt, black pepper, and lemon juice. Whisk together until well blended.

  2. 2

    Marinate the Chicken

    Place the chicken breasts in a resealable plastic bag and pour the marinade over them. Seal the bag and massage the marinade into the chicken. Let it marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.

  3. 3

    Grill the Chicken

    Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Remove the chicken from the marinade and discard the marinade. Grill the chicken for about 6-7 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C).

Whipped Potatoes

  1. 4

    Prepare the Potatoes

    Peel and chop the potatoes into uniform pieces. Place them in a large pot and cover with cold water. Add a pinch of salt.

  2. 5

    Cook the Potatoes

    Bring the water to a boil over medium-high heat. Cook the potatoes for about 15-20 minutes or until fork-tender.

  3. 6

    Whip the Potatoes

    Drain the cooked potatoes and return them to the pot. Add the butter, heavy cream, salt, and black pepper. Use a potato masher or electric mixer to whip until smooth and creamy.

Mixed Vegetables

  1. 7

    Prepare the Vegetables

    Wash and chop the carrots, broccoli, and bell peppers into bite-sized pieces.

  2. 8

    Sauté the Vegetables

    In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped vegetables, salt, and black pepper. Sauté for about 5-7 minutes until the vegetables are tender yet crisp.
