The Good Bit
- Mix all the ingredients together in a bowl, excluding the mash ingredients, drop the chicken in, set aside and leave for at least 2 hours, preferably over night to get the flavour in the chicken, for speed if you only have 2 hours score the chicken breast lightly with your knife.
- Grill the chicken under a medium grill for 20 minutes, turning once half way through, meanwhile boil your potatoes in the large pan for 20 minutes.
- Drain the large pan, mash the potatoes and drop in the fromage frais, season and mix well (add a bit of butter if you want to be really naughty). Serve a scoop of mash with a breast on top and finish off with a sprig of parsley.
