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!
