Ingredients

Scale

Chicken and Sauce

  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1/3 cup honey
  • 1/2 cup smoky BBQ sauce (choose your favorite)
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil (for cooking chicken)
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Garlic Potatoes

  • 1.5 pounds baby potatoes or Yukon gold potatoes, washed and halved
  • 3 cloves fresh garlic, minced
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Garnish

  • Fresh parsley or thyme, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Garlic Potatoes: Wash and halve the potatoes. In a large bowl, toss them with olive oil, minced garlic, salt, and pepper. Spread the potatoes evenly on a baking sheet and roast in a preheated oven at 400°F (200°C) for 25 to 30 minutes until golden and crispy, stirring halfway through for even roasting.
  2. Marinate the Chicken: While the potatoes roast, combine honey and BBQ sauce in a bowl. Coat the chicken breasts thoroughly with this mixture and let them marinate for at least 10 minutes to absorb the flavors. For deeper flavor, marinate up to 1-2 hours or overnight in the fridge.
  3. Cook the Chicken: Heat a skillet over medium heat and add olive oil. Place the marinated chicken breasts in the pan and cook for 6 to 8 minutes on each side, or until cooked through and nicely glazed. Spoon extra honey BBQ sauce over the chicken while cooking to intensify the flavor.
  4. Combine and Serve: When the potatoes are tender and crisp, and the chicken is cooked, plate them together. Garnish with freshly chopped herbs like parsley or thyme. Serve immediately and enjoy your hearty, flavorful dinner.

Notes

  • Pound the chicken breasts to an even thickness to ensure uniform cooking.
  • Use freshly minced garlic rather than garlic powder for the best aroma and flavor.
  • Don’t skip marinating the chicken; it greatly enhances tenderness and taste.
  • Stir the potatoes halfway during roasting to achieve even crispiness.
  • Let the cooked chicken rest for a few minutes before slicing to preserve juiciness.
