Herb-Crusted Chicken

Simple and yet delicious.

Ingredients

  • 2 Boneless-Skinless Chicken Breasts

  • 1 oz Shredded Parmesan Cheese

  • 1/3 oz Butter

  • 1/2 tsp Garlic Salt

  • 10 oz Mashed Potatoes

  • 8 oz Broccoli Florets

  • 1 oz Cream Cheese

  • 3/4 oz Roasted Garlic & Herb Butter

  • 1/2 tsp Garlic & Parsley Seasoning

  • 1 tsp Italian Seasoning Blend

Directions

  • Cut broccoli into bite-sized pieces

  • In a microwave-safe bowl, combine mashed potatoes, cream cheese, and plain butter. Stir vigorously and set aside. Cream cheese and butter will melt as potatoes heat.

  • Pat chicken dry and season both sides with Italian seasoning and a pinch of salt and pepper.

  • Place a medium non-stick pan over medium heat and add 2 tsp. olive oil.

  • Add chicken to hot pan and cook until browned and chicken reaches a minimum internal temperature of 165 degrees, 5-7 minutes per side.

  • Remove from burner. Transfer chicken to a plate and tent with foil. While chicken cooks, continue recipe.

  • Place another medium non-stick pan over medium heat and add 1 tsp. olive oil.

  • Add broccoli, half the garlic salt (reserve remaining for potatoes), and 1/4 cup water to hot pan. Cover and cook until water is almost completely evaporated, 4-6 minutes. Uncover, and stir occasionally until tender, 2-3 minutes. Remove from burner.

  • Cover mashed potatoes with a paper towel. Microwave covered until heated through, 2-3 minutes, stirring once halfway through.

  • Carefully remove from microwave and uncover. Stir in shredded cheese, remaining garlic salt, and garlic and parsley seasoning until thoroughly combined.

  • Plate dish as pictured, topping chicken with garlic and herb butter.
