From the Test Kitchen

This meal features a trio of our favorite gourmet ingredients: gorgeous purple potatoes (which we're mashing with olive oil for luscious texture), oyster mushrooms (known for their especially meaty flavor) and fresh sage. The potatoes and mushrooms make for hearty accompaniments to pan-seared chicken, while the sage adds its woodsy flavor to a rich pan sauce, also made with butter and a bit of sherry vinegar.

2 Cook & mash the potatoes:

Add the potatoes to the pot of boiling water. Cook 12 to 14 minutes, or until tender when pierced with a fork. Turn off the heat. Drain thoroughly and return to the pot.

While the potatoes cook, in a medium pan (nonstick, if you have one), heat 2 teaspoons of olive oil on medium-high until hot.
