Scale
Chicken
- 1 pound chicken tenderloins or breasts, cut into bite-sized pieces
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 1/2 teaspoons paprika
- 1 1/2 teaspoons poultry seasoning
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/2 cup garlic parmesan wing sauce
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella
Potatoes
- 1 pound baby potatoes, halved
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 1/2 teaspoons paprika
- 1 1/2 teaspoons poultry seasoning
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat the oven to 400°F and prepare a baking sheet for roasting the potatoes.
- Prepare Chicken: Trim any fat off the chicken and cut into bite-sized pieces. Place in a large bowl, drizzle with 1 tablespoon olive oil.
- Prepare Potatoes: In a separate large bowl, add the halved baby potatoes and 1 tablespoon olive oil.
- Mix Seasoning: In a small bowl, combine paprika, poultry seasoning, and black pepper.
- Season Chicken and Potatoes: Sprinkle half of the seasoning mixture evenly over the chicken and the other half over the potatoes. Toss both to coat evenly.
- Roast Potatoes: Spread the seasoned potatoes evenly on the baking sheet and roast in the oven for 20 minutes until golden and tender.
- Cook Chicken: While potatoes roast, heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the seasoned chicken and cook for 7-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until browned on all sides and fully cooked through.
- Add Butter and Garlic: To the cooked chicken in the skillet, add butter and minced garlic. Stir to combine and cook for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
- Combine Chicken and Potatoes: Add the roasted potatoes from the oven to the skillet with the chicken. Toss everything together off the heat.
- Add Sauce: Pour the garlic parmesan wing sauce over the chicken and potatoes. Toss to coat evenly.
- Melt Cheese: Sprinkle shredded mozzarella evenly over the top of the mixture. Cover the skillet with a lid and let the cheese melt for about 5 minutes over low heat.
Notes
- Use chicken breast pieces or tenderloins according to preference. Tenderloins cook slightly faster and are more tender.
- Ensure potatoes are halved evenly for even roasting.
- Covering with a lid helps melt the cheese thoroughly and keeps the dish moist.
- Adjust seasoning amounts to taste.
- For a crispier potato texture, you can roast them a few minutes longer before combining with chicken.
