- Peel, then cut potatoes into 1-inch pieces.
- Add potatoes, 1 tsp salt and enough water to cover (by approx. 1 inch) to a large pot (use same for 4 ppl). Cover and bring to a boil over high heat.
- Once boiling, reduce heat to medium-high. Simmer uncovered until fork-tender, 10-12 min.
- Meanwhile, pat chicken dry with paper towels. Season with half the garlic salt and pepper.
- Heat a medium non-stick pan (large for 4 ppl) over medium-high heat.
- When the pan is hot, add 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil, then chicken. (NOTE: Don't overcrowd the pan; cook in 2 batches if needed.)
- Cook until golden, 1-2 min per side.
- Transfer to a parchment-lined baking sheet.
- Roast in the middle of the oven until chicken is cooked through, 10-12 min.**
- While chicken cooks, add maple syrup, balsamic vinegar and half the broth concentrate to a small bowl. Stir to mix.
- Halve Brussels sprouts (if larger, quarter them).
- Reheat the same pan (from step 2) over medium.
- When the pan is hot, add 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) butter and Brussels sprouts. Cook, stirring often, until butter is melted, 1-2 min.
- Reduce heat to medium-low. Add half of the maple syrup mixture and 1/3 cup (1/2 cup) water. Stir to coat.
- Cover and cook, stirring occasionally, until most of the liquid has evaporated and veggies are tender, 6-8 mins.
- Stir in cranberries.
- Drain and return potatoes to the same pot, off heat. Mash remaining broth concentrate and 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) butter into potatoes until creamy. Season with remaining garlic salt and pepper.
- Thinly slice chicken.
- Divide mash, chicken and Brussels sprouts between plates.
- Spoon remaining maple-balsamic sauce over chicken.
