👩🍳 Directions
Cook the Chicken 🍗
Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Season chicken with garlic powder, salt, pepper, and thyme.
Heat a pan over medium-high and sear chicken in olive oil (or spray) for 2–3 minutes per side.
Place in a baking dish, top with mushrooms and cheese. Bake for 12–15 minutes until cooked through and cheesy on top.
Make the Mashed Potatoes 🥔
Boil potato cubes in salted water for 12–15 minutes until fork-tender.
Drain, then mash with light butter and milk. Season with salt.
Roast the Carrots 🥕
Toss carrots with olive oil (or spray), salt, and pepper. Roast at 400°F (200°C) for 20 minutes until soft and caramelized. Sprinkle with parsley.
Steam the Green Beans 🥬
Steam or boil for 4–5 minutes until just tender. Optional: toss with a dab of light butter or leave plain.
Assemble the Plate 🍽️
Arrange mashed potatoes, roasted carrots, and green beans alongside the cheesy mushroom chicken. Garnish with herbs and enjoy warm.
✅ WW Smart Tips:
Use light or reduced-fat cheese (like WW or part-skim shredded) to save 1–2 points.
Swap olive oil for a quick spritz of cooking spray to cut 2 points.
Sub cauliflower mash for potatoes if you’d like a low-carb, zero-point alternative.
Bulk up the meal with extra steamed veggies — they’re filling and 0 pts!
