  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • Parsley, optional garnish

Instructions

  1. Reheat mashed potatoes until hot and smooth, stirring occasionally.

Notes

Keep mashed potatoes warm for best comfort and texture., Get the chicken extra crispy for a good texture contrast., Warm every ingredient so the bowl is cozy throughout., Use gravy sparingly to avoid sogginess., Season at the end after tasting, as gravy and cheese add saltiness., Serve alongside green salad, steamed vegetables, crusty bread, or fresh fruit for a complete meal., Leftovers store well in airtight containers for up to 3 days.
