Get your potatoes boiling in a pan of water.

Once cooked through, drain and re-add to the pan. Add 1 1/2 tablespoons of butter, a handful of chopped parsley and tarragon, salt, pepper and a small drizzle of olive oil. Mash everything together. Once mashed, add your bacon and fold it through. Set mash aside.

Chicken time. Cut a slit into the thick side of each chicken breast. Work the knife and your index finger into the slit and make hole to hold the butter. Ideally you want to keep the slit quite small so the butter doesn’t flow out.
