To begin making the Lemon Grilled Chicken Recipe, add the chicken with lemon juice, thyme, oregano, salt and pepper in a mixing bowl and keep it aside for about 1 hour.
We will move on to make the mashed potato, add the chopped sweet potato, milk, garlic and butter into a sauce pan and leave it to boil.
Boil until the potatoes have become soft and fluffy. Using a potato masher, mash all the potatoes, add little salt and mix well. Before serving sprinkle some pepper so till then keep it aside.
To saute the vegetables, heat a sauce pan with oil, add beetroot and saute until it softens.
Next, add in the bell peppers and broccoli. Saute for some more time by sprinkling little water and salt.
Cover and cook so that the vegetables will get cooked inside the steam. Once the vegetables are steamed, open the lid, add seasoning and salt as per your taste and keep it aside.
To grill the chicken, grease the grilled pan with oil and keep it on medium heat. Once the pan becomes hot, place the chicken on the grill pan and allow it to cook. Cook on both the sides for 10 minutes.
Keep brushing the chicken with the leftover dressing so that the chicken will develop enough flavor.
Keep grilling the chicken until it is done. The chicken breast will take about 15 minutes to cook on either side on medium heat.
To serve, place the grilled chicken on the plate. Spread the mashed potato next to the chicken and place some sautéed vegetables also by the side and serve.
