How to Make Garlic Parmesan Chicken & Potatoes

Step 1: Prepare the Potatoes

Wash, peel, and cut the potatoes into small cubes. Toss them with olive oil, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika. Cook the potatoes in the air fryer at 400°F for about 20 minutes, shaking the basket a couple of times during cooking to ensure even browning.

Step 2: Cook the Chicken

While the potatoes are cooking, cut the chicken breasts into bite-sized cubes. Heat a skillet over medium-high heat with a little butter. Add the chicken cubes and cook until browned on all sides and cooked through. Season the chicken with salt, pepper, paprika, onion powder, and Italian seasoning.

Step 3: Make the Sauce

Once the chicken is cooked, add the minced garlic and Buffalo Wild Wings Garlic Parmesan Sauce to the skillet. Stir to combine and coat the chicken evenly.

Step 4: Combine and Melt Cheese

Add the cooked potatoes to the skillet with the chicken and sauce. Top with shredded mozzarella cheese. Broil in the oven for a few minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly. Alternatively, you can cover the skillet with a lid and let it sit on the stovetop until the cheese melts.

Step 5: Serve and Enjoy!

Serve the Garlic Parmesan Chicken & Potatoes immediately with your favorite sides.

Pro Tips for Making the Recipe

  • Customize the seasonings: Feel free to adjust the seasonings for the chicken and potatoes to your liking.
  • Add vegetables: Add your favorite vegetables, such as broccoli florets, bell peppers, or onions, to the air fryer along with the potatoes.
  • Make it a complete meal: Serve with a side salad, rice pilaf, or crusty bread for a complete and satisfying meal.
  • Adjust the sauce: If the sauce is too thick, add a splash of chicken broth or milk to thin it out.
