Cooking Steps
• Boil the kettle. Half-fill a medium saucepan with the boiling water and a pinch of salt. • Cut potato and carrot into large chunks. Crush garlic using the flat side of a knife and peel. • Cook potato, carrot and garlic in boiling water until tender and easily pierced with a fork, 10-15 minutes. • Drain and return veggies to the pan. Add chicken-style stock powder and the butter. Mash until smooth, then cover to keep warm.
TIP: Save time and get more fibre by leaving the potato unpeeled!
• While the veggies are cooking, roughly chop tomato. Finely chop chives. Cut boneless chicken drumsticks into 2cm chunks. • In a medium bowl, combine garlic & herb seasoning and a drizzle of olive oil. Add chicken and toss to coat.
• In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over a medium-high heat. • When oil is hot, cook chicken, tossing, until browned and cooked through, 5-6 minutes. • Remove pan from the heat, then add sour cream and chives (reserve a pinch for garnish), turning chicken to coat. Season with pepper.
• In a medium bowl, combine mixed salad leaves, tomato, a pinch of salt and a drizzle of white wine vinegar and olive oil. • Divide garlicky veggie mash and herb chicken between plates. • Spoon over sour cream sauce and garnish with the reserved chives. • Serve with tomato salad.
