Buffalo Chicken and Garlic Parmesan Potatoes
Description
The dish starts by cutting small russet potatoes into wedges that are tossed with olive oil, garlic, salt, pepper, paprika, cayenne, dried parsley, and grated Parmesan. Roasting at 425°F crisps the wedges with a flavorful crust. Meanwhile, chicken breast pieces are cooked in olive oil until opaque, then tossed with melted butter, cornstarch, and buffalo sauce to create a lightly sauced, spicy coating.
Broccoli is steamed separately as a fresh, steamed vegetable side to balance the rich and spicy chicken and potatoes. The combination presents varied textures: crispy potato edges, tender chicken bites with a buffalo kick, and crisp-tender broccoli.
This meal balances bold, spicy, cheesy, and fresh elements making it substantial and well-rounded.
Ingredients
For the Chicken
- 2 ½ lbs chicken breast boneless, skinless
- 2-3 Tbsp buffalo sauce
- 1 tsp cornstarch
- 1 Tbsp olive oil
- 1 Tbsp butter
For the Broccoli
- 1 large bunch broccoli
For the Potato Wedges
- 5 small russet potato
- 1 Tbsp olive oil
- 2 Tbsp garlic minced
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 tsp black pepper
- 1 tsp paprika
- 1 tsp cayenne pepper
- 1 Tbsp parsley dried
- 3 Tbsp Parmesan Cheese grated
Instructions
For the Potatoes
- Preheat your oven to 425°F.
- Wash each of your potatoes thoroughly. Cut each of them in half long ways 3 times so you have 8 wedges for each potato.
- In a large bowl, drizzle 1 Tbsp of olive oil over the potatoes. Sprinkle 1 tsp of salt, pepper, paprika, cayenne, and 1 Tbsp parsley over the potatoes. Add 2 Tbsp of minced garlic and 3 Tbsp of grated parmesan cheese. Toss the potatoes to coat and spread onto a sheet pan.
- Bake for 15 minutes and then flip them to the other side and cook an additional 10-12 minutes.
For the Chicken
- While the potatoes are cooking cut the chicken breast into one inch cubes.
- Heat a large skillet over medium high heat and add in 1 Tbsp of olive oil. Add the chicken and cook until it is white in the center, around 7-8 minutes.
- When the chicken is just about cooked through, melt 1 Tbsp of butter and mix in 1 tsp of cornstarch and 2-3 Tbsp of buffalo sauce.
For the Broccoli
- Steam the broccoli while your chicken is cooking. Season with salt and pepper.
