Cooking Steps
• Boil the kettle. Half-fill a medium saucepan with boiling water. • 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 to potato and season generously with salt. Mash until smooth.
TIP: Save time and get more fibre by leaving the potato unpeeled.
• Meanwhile, preheat grill to high. • Grate carrot. • Thinly slice cucumber into half-moons. • Cut chicken breast into 2cm chunks.
Little cooks: Under adult supervision, older kids can help grate the carrot.
• In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over high heat. • When oil is hot, cook chicken and carrot, tossing occasionally, until browned, 4-5 minutes. • Add garlic & herb seasoning and cook until fragrant, 1 minute. • Reduce heat to medium and stir in light cooking cream, Dijon mustard, chicken-style stock powder and the water. Simmer, until slightly thickened, 2-3 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
• Transfer chicken filling to a baking dish and spread over mashed potato. • Sprinkle over Cheddar cheese. Grill until golden, 5-10 minutes.
• In a large bowl, combine mixed salad leaves, cucumber and a drizzle of vinegar and olive oil. Season.
Little cooks: Help toss the salad.
• Divide hearty chicken pie and hidden veggie pie between plates. Serve with cucumber salad. • Top salad with walnuts to serve. Enjoy!
