Instructions

1
Peel and dice the potato. Fill a pan with water and bring to a boil. Add 1 teaspoon salt and cook the diced potato until tender when pricked with a fork. This should take around 10–15 minutes. Drain and mash well with a fork.
2
Mince the onion and finely chop the chicken breast.
3
Heat a little olive oil in a large skillet and lightly fry the onion. When it begins to soften, add the chopped chicken breast and fry together with the onion, stirring often, until cooked through. Season with a little salt.
4
Add the mashed potato to the skillet and mix with the chicken. Add the milk to the ingredients for creaminess and let cook for a few minutes. Turn off the heat.
5
Transfer the contents of the skillet to several ramekins or containers. Optionally, you can sprinkle grated cheese over the top and place under the oven broiler for 5 minutes. Serve immediately.

Tips & Tricks

You can use light cream instead of milk. If you want to avoid lactose, use tomato sauce instead of milk for a creamy consistency.

You can also add extra flavor by using spices, such as a teaspoon of cumin, curry powder, or turmeric.
