Seared Chicken Thighs with Garlic Mashed Potatoes and Sautéed Spinach
Enjoy a satisfying plate of seared chicken thigh paired with creamy garlic mashed potatoes and a side of tender sautéed spinach. This comforting yet lean dinner harmonizes savory flavors and subtle tang from Greek yogurt, creating a balanced meal that delights the palate.
INGREDIENTS
1 boneless skinless chicken thigh (130g)
1 medium potato (200g)
1 clove garlic
3 cups raw fresh spinach (approx. 100g)
1/4 cup nonfat Greek yogurt (60g)
1 teaspoon olive oil
Salt and pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Pat the chicken thigh dry and season with salt and pepper on both sides.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and add half of the olive oil. Sear the chicken thigh for about 5-6 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F. Remove and let rest.
While the chicken cooks, peel and cut the potato into chunks. Boil in salted water until tender, about 15-20 minutes. Drain well.
In a small pan, lightly sauté the minced garlic in a tiny bit of olive oil until fragrant. Add the garlic into the drained potatoes and mash them with the Greek yogurt until smooth and creamy. Season with salt and pepper.
Using the same skillet (or another), add the remaining olive oil and quickly sauté the spinach over medium heat until just wilted, about 2 minutes, and season with a pinch of salt.
Plate the garlic mashed potatoes alongside the sautéed spinach, and slice the chicken thigh to serve on top or on the side. Enjoy your balanced dinner!
