Idaho Supreme Mashed Potatoes & Baked Chicken

From all the mashed potatoes  - flakes and instant powders which we have tried, this Idaho Supreme product is definitely the best. Mashed potatoes made with these Idaho Supreme potato flakes are always tasty and fluffy. Thanks to the very clear instructions included on the box, I can easily prepare various numbers of servings, according to our current needs. What I need to add is water, milk and some butter. The only thing which I do differently than ' the manual' says - I heat milk with water and butter instead of mixing hot water, butter and potato flakes with cold milk. I tried the latter one when I was making Idaho Mashed Potatoes for dinner for the first time, but the potatoes turned to be too cool then.
We bought the product at Dollar Tree and we were positively surprised with its quality. Of course, the price was excellent too.
To sum up, so far, Idaho Supreme Mashed Potatoes has been our choice no. 1 considering buying instant mashed potatoes.
I also use the potato flakes to prepare chicken breast for dinner - it is a very easy and quick recipe.

Products you need (for two servings):

  • 1 big chicken breast
  • some grated Parmesan cheese
  • some salt*
  • some black pepper*
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 TBS water
  • some Idaho Supreme Mashed Potatoes flakes
  • a little canola oil/olive oil
  • baking dish and oven of course :)
* the amount of salt and black pepper depends on your likes but do not add too much

 

What to do wit it all:

1. Heat oven to 375F/190C.
2. Grease your baking dish and heat it in the oven for 5 minutes.
3. In the meantime:
  • bowl no.1 - mix Parmesan with salt and black pepper; 
  • bowl no. 2 - mix egg with water, beat it a little bit with fork;
  • bowl no. 3 - prepare enough Idaho Supreme potato flakes to coat chicken breast.
4. Coat chicken breast - bowl no.1, 2, and then no. 3.
5. Put the coated chicken breast on the baking dish, sprinkle it with some oil and bake it for about 10/15 minutes, then turn the meat and bake it for 15 minutes again.
