  1. Step 1: Prepare the ingredients. Peel and roughly chop the carrot and potato. Finely chop the garlic and parsley. Zest the lemon and squeeze the juice.
  2. Step 2: Place the carrot and potato into a pot of boiling water and cook until they are tender (approximately 10-15 minutes).
  3. Step 3: While the veggies are boiling, season the chicken breast with a pinch of salt and black pepper. Heat the olive oil in a pan over medium heat.
  4. Step 4: Add the chicken breast to the pan and cook for 5-7 minutes on each side, or until the juices run clear when the thickest part is pierced with a knife.
  5. Step 5: During the last 2 minutes of cooking the chicken, add the minced garlic to the pan and allow it to cook until fragrant.
  6. Step 6: Once the chicken is almost done, add the lemon zest and juice to the pan for a burst of fresh flavour, then remove the chicken to a plate to rest.
  7. Step 7: Drain the cooked carrots and potato, then mash them together, seasoning with a pinch of salt and pepper. Garnish the mash with chopped parsley.
  8. Step 8: Serve the chicken breast alongside the veggie mash.
