Method

Chicken Preparation

  1. 1

    Marinate the Chicken

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

  2. 2

    Grill the Chicken

    Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Remove the chicken from the marinade and place it on the grill. Cook for 6-7 minutes on each side or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C).

Potato Preparation

  1. 3

    Prepare the Potatoes

    Wash and peel the potatoes. Cut them into quarters. Boil them in salted water for about 15-20 minutes, or until tender.

  2. 4

    Mash the Potatoes

    Drain the potatoes and return them to the pot. Add butter, salt, and black pepper. Mash until smooth and creamy.

Broccoli Preparation

  1. 5

    Sauté the Broccoli

    In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté for about 30 seconds. Add broccoli florets, salt, and sauté for 5-7 minutes until the broccoli is tender yet crisp.
