Kitchen Helper

For Mothers Day today we tried a new recipe and I needed a helper.  Enter Schwartzbeere's oldest.  Today he was a very willing helper.  That was a fun thing.  And we were using the instapot, which makes things real simple.  So, with a little supervision from his little sister, we set about the job. 

We started by dumping the baby potatoes and chicken breasts in a big bowl and adding all the spices.

He liked that part.  The only requirement was to hit the bowl without spilling.

Stirring was a little more challenging, we took turns with that to make sure it all got mixed up thoroughly.

Then the chicken had to go in the pot first.  So we had to pick it out from all the little potatoes.  He was up for it.

Then, last but not least, all potatoes went in on top of the chicken.

I set the instapot and then it was just a matter of waiting.  So during the fifteen minutes while the chicken and potatoes cooked, we got everything else ready and got the table set.  Then it was just a matter of serving it up.

Pretty soon, everything was ready and all we needed was the grandma, the mother at our house. 

So we drug everybody to table and dug in.  It was pretty good. Yummy chicken and tender potatoes. This was a recipe that Brombeere had come across earlier and had wanted to try.  We felt good when she pronounced it delicious.  Me and my helper had a hit, a Mothers Day success.   Well done, little man!
