Ingredients
For the Chicken:
- 700 g (about 1.5 pounds) chicken breast, cut into pieces
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 tbsp soy sauce
- 2 tsp garlic powder
- 3 tbsp olive oil
- 2 tbsp cornstarch
- Black pepper, to taste
- 1 onion, sliced
- 1 red bell pepper, sliced
- 1 green bell pepper, sliced
- 2 stalks spring onions, chopped
For the Potatoes:
- 800 g (about 1.75 pounds) potatoes, cut into chunks
- 2 tsp salt
- 2 tsp garlic powder
- 2 tsp sweet paprika
- Olive oil, for drizzling
- Black pepper, to taste
Instructions
- Prepare the Potatoes:
- Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F).
- In a large bowl, toss the potato chunks with salt, garlic powder, sweet paprika, and black pepper. Lightly coat with olive oil and toss to ensure even coverage.
- Arrange the potatoes in a single layer on a baking tray.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the potatoes are golden brown and crispy, turning once halfway through cooking.
- Prepare the Chicken:
- While the potatoes are baking, heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
- In a bowl, combine the chicken pieces with salt, soy sauce, garlic powder, and cornstarch. Toss to coat the chicken evenly.
- Add the chicken to the skillet and cook, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is browned and cooked through, about 8-10 minutes.
- Cook the Vegetables:
- In the same skillet, add a little more olive oil if needed. Sauté the sliced onion, red bell pepper, and green bell pepper until they are crisp-tender, about 5 minutes.
- Return the cooked chicken to the skillet and toss with the vegetables until everything is well combined and heated through. Stir in the chopped spring onions just before serving.
- Serve:
- Divide the baked potatoes among plates. Top with the juicy chicken and vegetable mixture.
