Instructions

Creating Glazed Garlic Herb Chicken Breast Over Creamy Mashed Potatoes is easier than you might think. Follow these simple steps to achieve a delicious result:

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  • This step ensures your chicken is cooked evenly and nicely browned.
  1. Prepare the Marinade:
  • In a bowl, combine olive oil, minced garlic, chopped rosemary, chopped thyme, honey, salt, and black pepper.
  1. Marinate the Chicken:
  • Place the chicken breasts in a resealable bag or a shallow dish and pour the marinade over them.
  • Seal the bag (or cover the dish) and let marinate for at least 15 minutes.
  1. Cook the Potatoes:
  • While the chicken is marinating, place the cubed potatoes in a pot and cover them with water.
  • Add a pinch of salt and bring to a boil. Cook until tender, about 15-20 minutes.
  1. Bake the Chicken:
  • Arrange the marinated chicken on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or lightly greased.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C).
  1. Make the Mashed Potatoes:
  • Once the potatoes are tender, drain them and return them to the pot.
  • Add heavy cream, butter, salt, and pepper. Mash until smooth and creamy.
  1. Serve the Chicken:
  • Remove the chicken from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes.
  • Slice the chicken breasts before serving to let out the delicious juices.
