Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pieces boneless, skinless chicken breast
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 cup milk
- 4 pieces protein-rich medium potatoes
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1 cup frozen corn kernels
- 2 cups broccoli florets
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 0.5 cup milk
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
Season the chicken breasts with olive oil, salt, pepper, paprika, and garlic powder.
Place the seasoned chicken on a baking sheet and bake for 25-30 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C).
While the chicken is baking, peel and cube the potatoes and boil them in a large pot for about 15 minutes, or until tender.
Drain the potatoes and return them to the pot. Add butter, 1 cup of milk, and a pinch of salt. Mash the potatoes until smooth and creamy.
In a small saucepan, bring a little water to a boil, add broccoli florets, and steam for 3-4 minutes until bright green and tender-crisp. Set aside.
Microwave or steam the corn kernels until heated through, about 2-3 minutes.
Once the chicken is cooked, let it rest for a few minutes before slicing it into bite-sized pieces.
Assemble each bowl by layering mashed potatoes, corn, broccoli, and sliced chicken.
Top each serving with shredded cheddar cheese.
Optionally, you may drizzle some additional hot sauce or gravy over the top for extra flavor.
