2
sweet potato
1
carrot
1 bag
snow peas
1 clove
garlic
1 bag
chives
1 packet
chicken drumstick fillet
1 packet
light cooking cream
(Contains: Milk;)
1 packet
wholegrain mustard
1 sachet
chicken-style stock powder
1
olive oil
20 g
butter
(Contains: Milk;)
2 tbs
milk
(Contains: Milk;)
2 tsp
honey
Bring a medium saucepan of salted water to the boil. Peel the sweet potato, then cut into large chunks. Thinly slice the carrot into half-moons. Trim the snow peas. Finely chop the garlic and chives.
Cook the sweet potato in the boiling water for 5 minutes. Place a colander (or steamer basket) on top of the saucepan, then add the carrot. Cover with a lid and steam until the carrot has softened, 7 minutes. Add the snow peas to the colander and contine to cook, until the veggies are tender and the sweet potato is easily pierced with a knife, 3 minutes.
While the sweet potato is cooking, heat a drizzle of olive oil in a large frying pan over a medium-high heat. Season the chicken drumstick fillet with salt and pepper on both sides, then add to the pan. Cook, turning occasionally, until golden and cooked through, 10-14 minutes. Transfer to a plate to rest.
Transfer the carrot and snow peas to a medium bowl. Drizzle with olive oil, then season to taste. Cover to keep warm. Drain the sweet potato and return to the saucepan. Add the butter and milk, then season generously with salt. Mash until smooth. Stir through the chives (reserve some for garnish!), then cover to keep warm.
Wipe out the excess oil from the frying pan, then return to a low heat. Cook the garlic, stirring, until fragrant, 1 minute. Add the light cooking cream, wholegrain mustard, honey and chicken-style stock powder. Stir to combine, then return the chicken (plus any resting juices) to the pan, turning to coat. Simmer until thickened, 2 minutes. Season to taste.
TIP: Add a little less mustard if you find it strong!
Slice the chicken. Divide the sweet potato and chive mash between plates. Top with the steam veggies and creamy honey mustard chicken, spooning over some sauce from the pan. Garnish with the reserved chives to serve.
