Step 1
Boil the 2 medium potatoes in salted water until fork-tender, about 15 minutes. Drain and mash with 1 tbsp butter and a splash of milk or water until smooth.
Step 2
While potatoes cook, heat a skillet over medium-high. Add the 1 large chicken leg and cook until golden and cooked through, about 8 minutes per side. Check that juices run clear.
Step 3
Warm the 0.5 cup chicken gravy in a small saucepan over medium heat until bubbling, about 3 minutes.
Step 4
Plate the mashed potatoes, top with the chicken leg, and pour the gravy over. Sprinkle with 2 tbsp chopped green onions and 2 tbsp diced red pepper before serving.
