Tips:
- For extra flavor, marinate the chicken thighs in the chili sauce, black pepper, olive oil, and paprika mixture for at least an hour before grilling.
- Use a meat thermometer to ensure the chicken is cooked to a safe internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
- To make the potato mash extra creamy, consider adding a splash of milk or a dollop of butter when whipping them.
- Steam the broccoli just until it becomes vibrant green and tender to preserve its nutrients and prevent it from becoming mushy.
- For a richer mash, use chicken broth in place of water when boiling the potatoes.
