Ingredients
Scale
Proteins:
- 1 pound chicken tenderloins or breasts, cut into bite-size pieces
Starches:
- 1 pound baby potatoes, halved
Seasonings and Sauces:
- 1 1/2 teaspoons paprika
- 1 1/2 teaspoons poultry seasoning
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 1/2 cup garlic parmesan wing sauce
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella
Instructions
- Prepare workstation and preheat oven to 400°F with a baking sheet ready.
- Eliminate excess fat from chicken and slice into uniform bite-sized chunks, transferring to a mixing bowl and drizzling with olive oil.
- Separate baby potatoes into halves, placing in another mixing bowl and coating with olive oil.
- Create a seasoning blend combining paprika, poultry seasoning, and ground pepper in a separate small container.
- Distribute seasoning mixture evenly across chicken and potatoes, thoroughly mixing to ensure complete coverage.
- Arrange seasoned potatoes on baking sheet, roasting for approximately 20 minutes until golden and crisp.
- Meanwhile, activate a large skillet over medium-high heat, sautéing seasoned chicken for 7-10 minutes until exterior develops a rich, caramelized brown color.
- Introduce butter and finely chopped garlic into the skillet, gently stirring to create a fragrant base.
- Transfer roasted potatoes into the skillet, combining with chicken to meld flavors.
- Drizzle garlic parmesan sauce over the mixture, tossing to ensure comprehensive coating.
- Generously sprinkle mozzarella cheese across the dish, covering with a lid and allowing cheese to melt for roughly 5 minutes until perfectly creamy.
Notes
- Enhance chicken tenderness by marinating in olive oil and seasonings for 15-30 minutes before cooking to develop deeper flavors.
- Adjust potato size uniformly to ensure even roasting and prevent some pieces from burning while others remain undercooked.
- Select fresh, high-quality parmesan cheese for a more robust and authentic taste that elevates the entire dish’s flavor profile.
- Replace chicken with tofu or chickpeas for a vegetarian version, maintaining the same seasoning and cooking technique to preserve the recipe’s essence.
