Honey Mustard Chicken with Sweet Potato Mash

INGREDIENTS
8 chicken tenderloins
1/3 cup honey
2 tbsp seeded mustard
1/3 cup vinegar
2 tbsp soy sauce
3 large potatoes (600g)
1 sweet potato/kumara (250g)
2 cloves garlic, crushed
milk or buttermilk
butter

METHOD
Combine honey, mustard, vinegar and soy sauce in medium bowl (non-metal).
Add tenderloins (or strips of breast), cover and marinate for at least three hours.
Grill or barbecue chicken until cooked, reserving marinade.
In small saucepan, heat marinade and boil gently for at least two minutes.
Boil potatoes, drain and add milk and butter. Let the milk warm before mashing.
Mash potatoes, add garlic and salt and pepper to taste.
Arrange chicken on top of mash and drizzle sauce over.

COMMENTS
Steamed greens, such as snow peas, spinach, bok choy, are fabulous with this dish.
Using buttermilk and leaving out the butter in the mash means a very low fat meal.
