Ingredients

For the Garlic Butter Chicken and Potatoes:

  • 1 1/2 lb (650g) chicken breast, cut into strips
  • 1 1/2 lb (650g) baby yellow potatoes, quartered
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 3 tablespoons butter, divided
  • 5 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 teaspoon fresh thyme, chopped
  • 1 teaspoon fresh rosemary, chopped
  • 1 teaspoon fresh oregano, chopped
  • Salt and fresh cracked pepper
  • Crushed red chili pepper flakes, optional

For the Marinade:

  • 1/4 cup low sodium soy sauce (or coconut amino if you’re strictly paleo)
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon hot sauce (e.g., Sriracha)
  • Fresh cracked pepper

Instructions

  1. To make the garlic butter chicken with potatoes: In a large bowl, combine the chicken strips with low-sodium soy sauce, olive oil, pepper, and hot sauce. Set aside to marinate while you cook the potatoes.
  2. Parboil the potatoes: Boil the quartered potatoes in salted water for 8 minutes. This will help them cook faster in the skillet and develop a nice golden crust.
  3. Cook the potatoes: In a skillet over medium-high heat, cook the potatoes in olive oil and butter until golden and tender. Transfer to a plate.
  4. Cook the chicken: In the same skillet, cook the marinated chicken strips with garlic and chili pepper flakes until browned. Add the reserved marinade and fresh herbs.
  5. Combine: Return the potatoes to the skillet, adjust seasoning, and heat through.
  6. Serve: Garnish with more chili pepper, herbs, and Parmesan cheese if desired. Enjoy your Garlic Butter Chicken and Potatoes!
