Place the potatoes in a small pot and cover with the water and half the salt. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce to medium and simmer for 15 minutes until very tender.
While the potatoes simmer, season the chicken breast on both sides with the black pepper and a pinch of salt.
Heat the olive oil in a 10-inch skillet over medium heat. Add the chicken breast and cook for 6 minutes. Flip and cook for 6 to 8 minutes more until the center is opaque. Done when opaque in the center, 165°F.
Drain the potatoes and return them to the pot. Add the garlic, milk, and butter. Mash until smooth, then stir in the chives.
Let the chicken rest for 3 minutes before serving alongside the mashed potatoes.
