Equipment

  • stand mixer with wire whip or hand mixer

Ingredients

  • 3 cups Potatoes peeled and diced small
  • 1 cup Beef broth
  • 2 sprigs Fresh thyme
  • 1/2 tsp Kitchen Bouquet Browning and Seasoning Sauce or comparable gravy type mix
  • 3 tbsp Butter
  • 2 tbsp Heavy cream
  • 1 cup Avocado oil or more if needed
  • 1/2 cup All-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup Cornstarch
  • 4 oz Chicken breast boneless skinless butterflied
  • 1/4 cup Milk
  • 2 tbsp Cheddar cheese shredded
  • 1/2 cup Corn defrosted
  • 1 tbsp Scallions garnish

Instructions

  • Peel and cut potatoes into bite-sized chunks so they all cook evenly. Place in a pot with cold water over high heat. Once boiling, turn the heat down to a simmer. Check the potatoes by inserting a fork into them, once the fork slides in and out with ease, take off of the heat and strain out all of the water.
  • In a saucepan, bring the broth, thyme, and gravy mix to a low simmer to build flavor. Season with salt and pepper. (Once deep flavor has built, thicken the gravy using 1 teaspoon of flour dissolved in an equal amount of water until smooth and not lumpy). Turn up the heat to a simmer, stir in the mixture a little at a time until it thickens into a gravy. Then set aside and cover with a lid to keep warm. Reheat if needed before serving.
  • In a saucepan, melt the butter. Once the butter is melted, stir in the cream to warm and then remove from the heat and set aside.
  • Heat the oil in a skillet or sauté pan to 350°F. Mix the flour and cornstarch. Toss the chicken in the flour/cornstarch then dip in milk, then back into the flour cornstarch to coat well on each side. Once the oil is hot, fry the chicken to a deep golden brown and to an internal temperature of 160°F. Remove from the oil to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess grease and immediately season with salt. Let rest for 3 minutes before cutting into bite sized pieces.
  • Using a ricer or potato masher, mash the potatoes to break them up. Mix in the cream and butter mixture, and whip until smooth. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Place the mashed potatoes in a bowl, top with cheese, chicken, corn, and gravy over top. Garnish with scallions.
