Description

This Chicken and Garlic Gravy with Cheesy Mashed Potatoes recipe delivers a hearty, restaurant‑style dinner that’s quick to prepare. Tender pan‑seared chicken breasts are smothered in a silky garlic gravy made with chicken broth and grape juice, then served over creamy mashed potatoes blended with shredded cheese, milk, and butter. Perfect for family meals, the dish balances savory depth with comforting creaminess in under an hour. Serve hot, garnish with parsley and let the aroma fill kitchen.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 chicken breasts
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 cups chicken broth
  • 1 cup grape juice
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 2 pounds potatoes, peeled and cubed
  • 1 cup shredded cheese
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 2 tablespoons butter

Instructions

  1. Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat, add chicken breasts, and brown both sides (about 4‑5 minutes per side).
  2. Push the chicken to the side, add minced garlic, cook until fragrant (≈30 seconds), then pour in chicken broth and grape juice, bring to a simmer, cover and cook 20 minutes until the chicken is cooked through.
  3. Meanwhile, boil peeled, cubed potatoes in salted water until fork‑tender (12‑15 minutes), drain, return to pot, add butter, shredded cheese, and milk, and mash until smooth.
  4. Remove chicken from the skillet, let rest briefly, optionally thicken the gravy, then serve sliced chicken topped with garlic gravy alongside the cheesy mashed potatoes.

Notes

  • For extra richness
  • finish the gravy with a pat of butter just before serving. Adjust salt and pepper to taste.
