  • 2 teaspoons onion powder
  • 2 teaspoons mixed herbs
  • 1 teaspoon chili flakes
  • 2 teaspoons paprika
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 2 teaspoons olive oil
  • 1.75 lbs potatoes (cubed, 800g)
  • 1 teaspoon salt (for potatoes)

Instructions

  1. Mix the cubed chicken breast with minced garlic, onion powder, mixed herbs, chili flakes, paprika, salt, and olive oil to coat evenly.
  2. Heat a large deep pan over medium-high heat. Add the seasoned chicken and sauté for about 5-6 minutes until golden brown.
  3. Toss the cubed potatoes with salt, garlic powder, mixed herbs, chili flakes, and paprika.
  4. Air fry the seasoned potatoes at 400°F for approximately 18-20 minutes, or roast them in the oven for 20-23 minutes until crispy.
  5. Reduce the heat and stir in the milk and cream cheese, mixing until smooth and creamy.
  6. Incorporate the grated Parmesan and mozzarella cheese, stirring until melted and well combined.
  7. Gently fold the crispy potatoes into the chicken and cheese mixture. Cover and let it sit for about 4-5 minutes for flavors to meld.
  8. Garnish with fresh parsley and serve immediately.

Notes
