INGREDIENTS
6 oz Chicken Breast
1 tsp Olive Oil (for chicken sear)
1 cup Broccoli
1 tsp Olive Oil (for roasting broccoli)
1 cup Cauliflower
3 tsp Olive Oil (for mashed cauliflower)
1 garlic clove
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F for roasting the broccoli.
Pat the chicken breast dry and season both sides with salt and pepper. Drizzle with 1 teaspoon of olive oil.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the chicken breast and sear for about 4-5 minutes per side until a golden crust forms and the internal temperature reaches 165°F. Remove from the skillet and let it rest.
While the chicken cooks, toss the broccoli florets with 1 teaspoon olive oil, salt and pepper. Spread them out on a baking sheet and roast in the preheated oven for 15-18 minutes until tender and slightly crispy on the edges.
For the garlic mashed cauliflower, steam the cauliflower florets until very tender, about 8-10 minutes. In a blender or food processor, combine the steamed cauliflower, garlic, and 3 teaspoons of olive oil. Blend until smooth and creamy, adding a splash of water if needed. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Plate the sliced chicken breast alongside a serving of roasted broccoli and a generous scoop of garlic mashed cauliflower. Enjoy your balanced, satisfying dinner!
