Preparation
1
Prep and cook potatoes

  • Before starting, wash and dry all produce.
  • Remove any brown spots from potatoes, then cut into 1-inch pieces.
  • To a large pot, add potatoes, 2 tsp (4 tsp) salt and enough water to cover (by approx. 1 inch). (Use same for 4 servings.) Cover and bring to a boil over high heat. 
  • Once boiling, reduce heat to medium. Simmer uncovered for 10-12 min, until fork-tender.
  • Drain and return potatoes to the same pot, off heat.

2
Prep

  • Meanwhile, thinly slice mushrooms.
  • Strip 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) thyme leaves from stems.
  • Roughly chop spinach.
  • Peel, then cut half the onion (use whole onion for 4 servings) into 1/2-inch pieces.

3
Prep and pan-fry chicken

  • Pat chicken dry with paper towels, then cut each breast into 4 pieces.
  • Season with half the garlic salt and pepper.
  • Heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high.
  • When hot, add 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) butter, then swirl the pan until melted, 1 min.
  • Add chicken. Cook for 2-3 min per side, until golden. (NOTE: Chicken will finish cooking in step 4.)

4
Cook veggies

  • Add mushrooms and onions to the pan with chicken.
  • Cook for 4-5 min, stirring occasionally, until veggies are tender-crisp and chicken is cooked through.**

5
Braise chicken and veggies

  • Sprinkle Gravy Spice Blend and thyme over chicken and veggies. Cook for 1 min, stirring often, until coated.
  • Add 3/4 cup (1 1/2 cups) water, broth concentrate and remaining garlic salt. Bring to a boil over high.
  • Once boiling, reduce heat to medium. Cook for 1-2 min, stirring occasionally, until sauce thickens slightly.
  • Add spinach. Stir until wilted, 1-2 min. Season with pepper.

6
Finish and serve

  • Reheat potatoes over medium-low.
  • Roughly mash 2 tbsp (4 tbsp) butter and 2 tbsp (4 tbsp) milk into potatoes, until slightly mashed. (NOTE: 'Smashed' potatoes will still have a few chunks!)
  • Season with pepper.
  • Divide smashed potatoes between plates.
  • Top with chicken, veggies and sauce.

7

If you've opted to get chicken breasts, cut into 4 pieces, then cook in the same way the recipe instructs you to cook chicken thighs.
