1 bag
herbs
1 head
broccoli
1
carrot
1 packet
chicken breast
1 sachet
Chicken-Style Stock Powder
2 clove
garlic
1
olive oil
2 tbs
milk
½ tbs

40 g
butter (for the mash)
10 g
butter (for the sauce)
• Boil the kettle. Half-fill a medium saucepan with boiling water, then add a generous pinch of salt. • Peel potato and cut into large chunks. • Cook potato in the boiling water, over high heat, until easily pierced with a fork, 10-15 minutes. Drain potato, then return to the pan. • Add the butter (for the mash), milk and garlic & herb seasoning to the saucepan with the potato. Mash with a potato masher or fork until smooth. Cover with a lid to keep warm.
Little cooks: Get those muscles working and help mash the potatoes!
• While the potato is cooking, zest lemon, then juice. Pick herb leaves and finely chop. Finely chop garlic. Cut broccoli into small florets, then roughly chop the stalk. Cut carrot into thin sticks. • Place your hand flat on top of each chicken breast and slice through horizontally to make two thin steaks. Season with salt and pepper.
Little cooks: Under adult supervision, older kids can help grate the lemon zest.
• In a small bowl combine lemon juice, lemon zest, herbs, garlic, the honey, chicken-style stock powder and a pinch of pepper.
Little cooks: Take charge by combining the ingredients for the sauce!
• In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat. Cook broccoli, carrot and a pinch of salt and pepper, tossing, until tender, 6-7 minutes. Transfer to a plate and cover to keep warm.
TIP: Add a splash of water to the veggies to help them cook faster!
• Return the frying pan to medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. Cook chicken until browned, 2-3 minutes each side. • Add lemon-herb sauce and butter (for the sauce). Cook, tossing chicken occasionally, until cooked through and well coated, 3-4 minutes.
TIP: The chicken is cooked through when it's no longer pink inside.
TIP: Add a splash more water if the sauce looks too thick.
• Divide potato mash between plates. Top with saucy lemon and herb chicken and sautéed veggies. • Spoon over any remaining lemon-herb sauce. Enjoy!
