Cheesy Sriracha Chicken and Potato Bake
Ingredients:
5-6 chicken breasts, cubed
8 organic red potatoes, cubed, skin on
1⁄2 cup olive oil
1 1⁄2 teaspoons salt
1-2 tablespoons Sriracha sauce (2 tbsp if you like spicy)
1 tablespoon fresh ground pepper
1 tablespoon paprika
2 tablespoons garlic powder
2 cups cheddar cheese, shredded
1 cup bacon, chopped (about 6-8 slices)
1 red onion, chopped
2 green onions, diced (optional)
Method
Preheat oven to 375 degrees. In a small bowl, mix together olive oil, salt, pepper, paprika, garlic powder and Sriracha sauce.
In a roasting pan, mix together red potatoes with Sriracha oil mix, saving about 1/3 of the mixture for later. Bake potatoes for about 20 minutes. Add chopped red onion, and bake for another 20 minutes.
In the meantime, fry bacon until almost cooked but not crispy. Remove bacon and set aside. In same pan, cook the chicken cubes thoroughly – do not overcook so as to not dry chicken out. Add remaining Sriracha oil mix to coat chicken cubes and stir.
After potatoes have baked for about 40 minutes, add chicken cubes to roasting pan. Add bacon and shredded cheddar. Bake for another 10 minutes.
Remove from oven. Sprinkle with green onions, and serve with sour cream, if desired.
