How to Make and Instructions:

Step 1: Prepare the Cheesy Roasted Potatoes

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Toss the halved potatoes in olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper.
  3. Spread the potatoes on a baking sheet and roast for 25-30 minutes until tender and golden.
  4. During the last 5 minutes of roasting, sprinkle shredded cheese over the potatoes and allow it to melt.
  5. Garnish with fresh parsley before serving.

Step 2: Make the Garlic Butter Chicken Bites

  1. Season the chicken bites with salt, pepper, and paprika.
  2. In a large skillet, melt 3 tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Add minced garlic and cook until fragrant (about 1 minute).
  3. Add the chicken pieces and cook for 6-8 minutes, turning to ensure even browning. If necessary, deglaze the pan with a splash of chicken broth or white wine.
  4. Remove the chicken bites and set aside.

Step 3: Make the Parmesan Cream Sauce

  1. In the same skillet, add the butter and minced garlic, cooking for about 1 minute until fragrant.
