Scale

1 1/2 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cubed

1 1/2 lbs baby potatoes, halved

1 tbsp olive oil

1 tsp garlic powder

1 tsp smoked paprika

Salt and pepper to taste

1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

2 tbsp chopped green onions (optional)

1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Lightly grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.

2. In a large bowl, toss cubed chicken and halved potatoes with olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper.

3. Transfer mixture to the prepared baking dish and spread in an even layer.

4. Cover with foil and bake for 30 minutes. Remove foil and stir.

5. Sprinkle cheddar and mozzarella evenly over the top. Return to oven uncovered for 10–15 more minutes or until cheese is melted and bubbly.

6. Garnish with green onions if desired. Serve hot.

Swap potatoes for sweet potatoes for extra fiber and vitamin A.

Add cooked spinach or broccoli for a nutrient boost.

Use pre-cooked chicken to cut down baking time—just reduce initial bake to 15 minutes.
