INGREDIENTS
5 oz Chicken Breast
1 tsp Olive Oil (for chicken)
1/4 medium Green Plantain
1 tbsp Light Coconut Milk
1/2 cup Collard Greens (cooked)
1 tsp Olive Oil (for collards)
1 clove Garlic
Fresh Rosemary & Thyme sprigs
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F.
Pat the chicken breast dry. Rub with 1 tsp olive oil, sprinkle with salt, pepper, and finely chopped rosemary and thyme.
Place the chicken in a baking dish and roast for about 20-25 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
While the chicken roasts, peel and chop the green plantain into chunks. Boil in water until tender, about 10-12 minutes.
Drain the plantains and blend with 1 tbsp light coconut milk, a pinch of salt, and a dash of pepper until smooth to create a creamy mash.
In a small pan, heat 1 tsp olive oil and add minced garlic. Sauté until fragrant, then add collard greens. Braise on low heat for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Plate the roasted chicken alongside a serving of creamy plantain mash and braised collard greens. Garnish with additional fresh herbs if desired, and serve warm.
