Ingredients
Scale
- 2 lbs boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1/2-inch cubes
- 2 lbs yukon gold potatoes, cut into 1/2-inch cubes
- 1/3 cup olive oil
- 1 1/2 teaspoons salt
- 1 1/2 teaspoons fresh ground pepper
- 1 tablespoon paprika
- 2 tablespoons garlic powder
- 6 tablespoons buffalo sauce
- 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 cup cooked and crumbled bacon
- â…“ cup sliced green onions

Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 500°F (this is not a typo!).
- In a large bowl, combine the olive oil, buffalo sauce, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika. Add the cubed potatoes and toss well to coat them.
- Transfer the coated potatoes into a greased 9×13 baking dish, leaving any extra oil/sauce mix in the bowl for the chicken.
- Add the diced chicken to the remaining oil and hot sauce mix in the bowl, and stir well to coat. Let it marinate while the potatoes bake.
- Bake the potatoes for 30-35 minutes, stirring halfway through, until they are cooked and crispy. If they’re still firm, keep baking until they are done.
- Once the potatoes are out of the oven, reduce the temperature to 400°F.
- Layer the marinated raw chicken on top of the potatoes and bake for 20 minutes or until the chicken is fully cooked.
- Sprinkle the cooked chicken with cheddar cheese and crumbled bacon. Bake for an additional 5-10 minutes until the cheese is melted and bubbly. Finish with sliced green onions and serve with ranch or blue cheese dressing.
