Crispy Chicken Tenders with Creamy Mashed Potatoes

2. Prepare the Mashed Potatoes

1. Place the cubed potatoes in a large pot and cover with cold water. Add a generous pinch of salt and bring to a boil. Starting with cold water ensures even cooking.
2. Boil until the potatoes are fork-tender, about 15–20 minutes. Drain thoroughly and return to the pot to steam off excess moisture for 1–2 minutes.
3. Mash the potatoes using a masher or hand mixer until smooth and lump-free. Gradually mix in the warm milk and butter until creamy. Adjust salt and pepper to taste.

3. Serving

Plate the crispy chicken tenders next to a generous scoop of mashed potatoes. For a homestyle presentation, garnish with fresh herbs, a drizzle of gravy, or serve with your favorite dipping sauce. This satisfying duo delivers classic comfort with minimal effort and maximum flavor.
