Seared Chicken Thighs with Garlic Green Beans and Sweet Potato Mash
Pan-seared chicken thighs served with creamy mashed sweet potatoes and crisp-tender garlic green beans, finished with a squeeze of bright lemon.
INGREDIENTS
7 oz Boneless Skinless Chicken Thighs
150g Sweet Potato, cubed
1 cup Green Beans, trimmed
1.5 tsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
2 cloves Garlic, minced
Salt, black pepper, and smoked paprika to taste
Squeeze of fresh lemon juice
PREPARATION
Place the cubed sweet potatoes in a pot of salted water and bring to a boil; cook for 10-12 minutes until tender.
While potatoes cook, season the chicken thighs on both sides with salt, pepper, and a dusting of smoked paprika.
Heat half of the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat and sear the chicken for 6-7 minutes per side until golden brown and cooked through.
Remove chicken from the skillet and set aside to rest.
In the same skillet, add the remaining oil, green beans, and minced garlic; sauté for 4-5 minutes until the beans are crisp-tender.
Drain the sweet potatoes and mash them using a fork or masher, adding a splash of the cooking water if needed for a creamy consistency.
Plate the chicken alongside the sweet potato mash and garlic green beans, finishing the entire dish with a fresh squeeze of lemon juice.
