Buffalo Chicken Roasted Potato Bake: A Comforting and Flavorful Dish
Ingredients
- 4 medium-sized potatoes, diced into cubes
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 cups cooked chicken, shredded (preferably rotisserie)
- 0.5 cup buffalo sauce
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 0.25 cup crumbled blue cheese (optional)
- 1 green onion chopped (for garnish)
- to taste fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
- In a large bowl, toss the diced potatoes with olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper until evenly coated.
- Spread the seasoned potatoes in a single layer on a baking sheet. Roast in the preheated oven for about 25-30 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy, stirring halfway through for even cooking.
- While the potatoes are roasting, combine the shredded chicken with buffalo sauce in a separate bowl. Add more sauce if you prefer a spicier flavor.
- Once the potatoes are done, remove them from the oven. Layer the buffalo chicken mixture evenly over the roasted potatoes. Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese over the top.
- Return the baking sheet to the oven and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
- Remove from the oven and sprinkle crumbled blue cheese, chopped green onions, and parsley over the top for a burst of color and flavor.
- Allow the bake to cool for a few minutes before serving to enhance the flavors.
