Cooking Steps
Peel and chop the potatoes. Peel and crush the garlic cloves and pit and chop the olives and chop the rosemary leaves. To make the mash, place potatoes in a saucepan of cold water, bring to the boil and cook for 20 minutes or until tender. Drain and return to pan. Add the peeled and crushed garlic, half the oil and a good amount of salt and mash with the pitted and chopped olives until smooth.
Combine parsley, mustard, rosemary, remaining oil, vinegar, and salt and pepper. Butterfly the chicken thighs. Add chicken and toss to coat. Set aside for 15 minutes. Cut broccoli into florets. Meanwhile cook the broccoli in a pot of boiling water until just soft and vibrant green in colour. Drain and keep warm.
Heat a large non-stick frying pan over a medium heat. Cook the chicken with the marinating juices for 5-7 minutes on each side or until cooked through.
Serve the chicken thighs on plates, spoon over the pan juices and serve with the olive mash and broccoli.
Did you know? Olive is the only fruit that is bitter - even when ripe or over ripe!
