Ingredients
Chicken
- 1 pound chicken tenderloins, cut into bite-size pieces
- 1 tablespoon oil
- ¾ teaspoon paprika
- ¾ teaspoon poultry seasoning
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- ½ cup garlic parmesan wing sauce
- 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
Potatoes
- 1 pound baby potatoes, halved
- 1 tablespoon oil
- ¾ teaspoon paprika
- ¾ teaspoon poultry seasoning
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
- Prepare the chicken and potatoes: Place the chicken pieces in one bowl and the halved baby potatoes in another bowl, keeping them separate for seasoning.
- Oil the ingredients: Drizzle 1 tablespoon of oil onto the potatoes and 1 tablespoon of oil onto the chicken to help spices stick and enhance roasting and sautéing.
- Mix seasoning: Combine paprika, poultry seasoning, and black pepper in a small dish to evenly distribute on both protein and starch.
- Season chicken and potatoes: Sprinkle half of the seasoning mix on the chicken, then toss to coat well. Repeat with the remaining seasoning on the potatoes.
- Roast the potatoes: Spread the seasoned potatoes on a baking sheet or air fryer basket and roast at 400°F (204°C) for 20 minutes until tender and lightly crispy.
- Cook the chicken: While the potatoes roast, heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add the chicken. Cook for 7-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is browned and fully cooked through.
- Add garlic and butter: Reduce heat to medium-low. Add butter and minced garlic to the skillet and stir until the garlic is fragrant and butter is melted, coating the chicken.
- Combine potatoes with chicken: Add the roasted potatoes to the skillet with the chicken, then turn off the heat. Toss to combine all ingredients thoroughly.
- Add garlic parmesan sauce: Pour the garlic parmesan wing sauce over the chicken and potatoes and toss again to ensure everything is coated in the flavorful sauce.
- Melt the cheese: Sprinkle shredded mozzarella evenly over the skillet contents. Cover the skillet with a lid and let it sit for about 5 minutes off the heat, allowing the cheese to melt perfectly.
- Serve: Once the cheese is melted, serve the Garlic Parmesan Chicken and Potatoes hot and enjoy a delicious, comforting meal.
Notes
- You can substitute baby potatoes with fingerling or small red potatoes if desired.
- For extra crispiness, use an air fryer to roast the potatoes.
- If dairy-free, swap butter and cheese for vegan alternatives.
- Make sure to cover the skillet when melting cheese to trap steam and melt it evenly.
- Adjust seasoning quantities to your taste preference.
