Preheat the oven to 180°C.

Cut two slashes into the chicken breast and stuff the pocket with garlic and cheese.

Whisk thyme, lemon juice, zest, and olive oil in a bowl with seasoning.

Add the chicken to the marinade and rest for 10 minutes.

Sear the chicken on a griddle pan for 4 minutes per side.

Roast the chicken on a baking sheet for 14 minutes until cooked.

Simmer squash, garlic, and milk in a pan for 12 minutes until tender.

Mash the squash mixture and stir in the grated cheese and seasoning.

Plate the mash, top with chicken, and drizzle with cooking juices.
