Cooking Steps
• Boil the kettle. Half-fill a large saucepan with boiling water, then add a generous pinch of salt. Peel potato and cut into large chunks.
• Cook potato in the boiling water over high heat until easily pierced with a fork, 12-15 minutes. Drain and return to the pan. Add the butter and milk and season to taste with salt and pepper. Mash until smooth. Cover to keep warm.
TIP: Save time and get more fibre by leaving the potato unpeeled.
Little cooks: Get those muscles working and help mash the potatoes!
• Meanwhile, trim baby broccoli, and halve lengthways.
• Add baby broccoli, trimmed green beans and a splash of water to a microwave-safe bowl, then cover with a damp paper towel.
• Microwave veggies on high until just tender, 2-4 minutes.
• Drain veggies, then return to the bowl, season to taste, drizzle with olive oil and cover to keep warm.
Little cooks: Use oven mitts to help steam the veggies under adult supervision. Be careful, the bowl can get hot!
• While veggies are steaming, in a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oilover medium-high heat. Cook chicken tenderloins until browned and cooked
through, 3-4 minutes each side.
• Reduce heat to medium, then stir in thickened cream, Dijon mustard, the salt and cracked black pepper, turning chicken to coat, 1 minute.
TIP: Chicken is cooked through when it is no longer pink inside.
• Divide mash, steamed greens and creamy mustard chicken between plates. Spoon over any remaining sauce from pan to serve. Enjoy!
ELEVATE ME: If you’ve added extra ingredients to this recipe, cut lemon into wedges and squeeze over steamed greens. Sprinkle over Parmesan cheese and flaked almonds to serve.

Review summary
Updated on July 2026- Flavour: The creamy Dijon mustard sauce was a clear highlight, praised for being rich and delicious. Some found the overall dish a little mild, and the steamed vegetables could use more seasoning.
- Ease of prep: Most found this a quick and straightforward weeknight meal that the whole family could help with.
- Suggestions: Several customers recommend using seeded or wholegrain mustard and reducing the Dijon slightly if you prefer a less intense flavour. Adding a drizzle of honey, a squeeze of lemon, or a sprinkle of Parmesan can lift the dish noticeably. For the vegetables, pan-frying or a quick two-minute boil works better than microwaving, especially for larger servings.
- Leftovers: At least one customer enjoyed the leftovers for lunch the next day.
- Portions: Many customers across different serving sizes felt the potato quantity was too small for a satisfying mash — adding one or two extra potatoes is a common recommendation.
