Chicken
- 2 chicken breasts, cubed
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon pepper
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 2 tablespoons minced garlic
- Buffalo Wild Wings Garlic Parmesan Sauce, as desired
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
Potatoes
- 4–5 small/medium-sized potatoes, cubed
- Olive oil, for tossing
- Salt, pepper, garlic powder, paprika, for seasoning potatoes
- Prepare the Potatoes: Rinse and cube the potatoes into bite-sized pieces. Toss them with olive oil, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika to evenly coat. Set aside while you prepare the chicken.
- Season the Chicken: In a bowl, combine cubed chicken breasts with salt, pepper, paprika, onion powder, and Italian seasoning. Mix well to ensure the chicken is evenly coated with the seasonings.
- Sear the Chicken: Heat butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the seasoned chicken and cook for about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is browned and nearly cooked through.
- Add Garlic: Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until fragrant, ensuring the garlic does not burn.
- Cook the Potatoes: In a separate skillet or the same pan if large enough, add the seasoned potatoes and cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until they are golden brown and tender, approximately 15-20 minutes.
- Combine Chicken and Potatoes: Once both components are cooked, combine the chicken and potatoes in the skillet. Drizzle Buffalo Wild Wings Garlic Parmesan Sauce over the mixture to your taste.
- Add Cheese and Melt: Sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese evenly on top. Cover the skillet with a lid and cook for another 2-3 minutes until the cheese melts and becomes bubbly.
- Serve: Remove from heat and serve hot. Garnish with additional parmesan or herbs if desired.
Notes
- You can substitute mozzarella with parmesan cheese for a sharper flavor.
- Adjust seasoning to taste, adding more garlic powder or paprika for extra spice.
- Using skin-on chicken thighs instead of breasts can add more moisture and flavor.
- For a low-carb option, swap potatoes with cauliflower florets.
- Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
