1/3 cup orange juice
1/4 cup brown sugar, firmly packed
6 red potatoes, peeled and chopped

Directions:
1. Use a small sharp knife to cut 3 slashes, about 4cm long and 1cm deep in each chicken breast.
2. Place the peppercorns, pepitas and orange rind in a mortar and pound with a pestle until a firm paste forms. Rub the mixture over both sides of the chicken.
3. Heat half the butter and 2 tablespoons of the oil in a large frying pan over medium heat. Add the chicken and cook for 3-4 minutes each side or until cooked through. Transfer to a plate and cover with foil to keep warm. Add wine to the pan and cook, stirring, for 1 miunute or until heated through.

4. Meanwhile cook potato in a saucepan of boiling water for 10 minutes or until tender. Drain, return to the pan with the garlic and use a potato masher or fork to mash until almost smooth. Add lemon juice and remaining butter and oil and stir with a wooden spoon until thick and creamy. Season with salt and pepper.
5. Divide the mash amongst serving plates. Top with chicken and drizzle wiwth glaze. Serve with beans and brussel sprouts.
