DON’T HAVE IT? If you can’t find chicken tenderloins in the meat section at your grocery store, use 2 pounds of chicken breast. Trim the fat and cut the chicken into 1-inch strips. If you don’t have panko bread crumbs, you can use Italian bread crumbs instead.

PREP TIME: 15 minutes

COOK TIME: 15 minutes

SERVES 6

TOOLS

Large pot

Ladle

Colander

Large bowl

Potato masher

Spatula

2½ pounds potatoes (Yukon Gold preferred), washed, peeled, and cubed

2 cups chicken broth, plus more as needed

2 tablespoons salt

½ cup heavy cream

½ cup sour cream

6 tablespoons salted butter, plus more for topping

⅛ teaspoon black pepper

¼ cup chopped chives

These fluffy, creamy, and tangy mashed potatoes pair well with almost any dish. I’m known for my mashed potatoes, and with this recipe, you will be, too.

1. Boil the potatoes.

Place the potatoes in a large pot. Add the broth, using more as needed to completely cover the potatoes. Bring to a boil over high heat; then lower the heat, put a lid on the pot, and simmer for 10 to 12 minutes, or until fork-tender. Wear oven mitts for the next steps, or ask an adult to help. After turning off the heat, move the pot to a cooler part of the stove. Reserve ¼ cup of the broth using a ladle, and drain the pot into a colander in the sink.

2. Mix and mash.

Place the potatoes, salt, heavy cream, sour cream, butter, and pepper in a large bowl. Use a potato masher to get them as smooth as you want. If they are too thick, add in the reserved broth.

3. Top the potatoes.

Using a spatula, scrape down the edges of the bowl and fluff the mashed potatoes. Top with the chives and more butter to taste.
