2 chicken breasts, cut into uniform cubes
4-5 small Yukon Gold potatoes, cubed
2 tbsp unsalted butter
2 tbsp fresh minced garlic
0.5 cup Garlic Parmesan sauce
1 cup mozzarella cheese, freshly shredded
Salt, pepper, paprika, and onion powder to taste
Olive oil for tossing potatoes
Wash, peel, and cube the potatoes into uniform pieces.
Toss potatoes with olive oil, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika.
Preheat air fryer to 400°F and cook potatoes for 20 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through.
While potatoes cook, cube the chicken breasts into bite-sized pieces.
Season the chicken with salt, pepper, and onion powder.
Sauté the chicken in butter and minced garlic in a pan until golden and cooked through.
Stir in the Garlic Parmesan sauce until the chicken is fully coated.
Combine the cooked potatoes and chicken in an oven-safe dish or skillet.
Top with freshly shredded mozzarella cheese.
Broil or bake briefly until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Using fresh garlic is recommended for the best flavor depth. For the crispiest potatoes, ensure they are dried thoroughly before tossing with oil. You can substitute the pre-made sauce with a homemade blend of parmesan, garlic, cream, and butter if preferred.
