High Protein Honey BBQ Chicken & Creamy Garlic Parmesan Potatoes
Ingredients:
For the Honey BBQ Chicken:
– 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
– 1 cup honey BBQ sauce
– 1 teaspoon garlic powder
– 1 teaspoon paprika
– Salt and pepper to taste
– Fresh parsley for garnish
For the Creamy Garlic Parmesan Potatoes:
– 2 pounds baby potatoes, halved
– 1 cup heavy cream
– ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
– 4 cloves garlic, minced
– Salt and pepper to taste
– 2 tablespoons olive oil
– Chopped chives for garnish
Directions:
1. Prepare the Chicken: Preheat your grill or oven to 375°F (190°C). In a bowl, combine honey BBQ sauce, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper. Coat the chicken breasts in the sauce mixture ensuring they are evenly covered.
2. Cook the Chicken: Place the chicken on the grill or in a baking dish. Grill for 6-7 minutes per side or bake for 25-30 minutes, until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C). Brush with additional BBQ sauce during the last few minutes of cooking for an extra glaze.
3. Prepare the Potatoes: While the chicken cooks, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the halved baby potatoes and cook until fork-tender, about 15-20 minutes. Drain and set aside.
4. Make the Creamy Sauce: In the same pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Stir in heavy cream, Parmesan cheese, salt, and pepper. Cook until the cheese has melted and the sauce is smooth.
5. Combine: Add the potatoes back to the pot with the creamy sauce. Gently toss to coat the potatoes evenly in the sauce.
6. Serve: Plate the honey BBQ chicken alongside the creamy garlic parmesan potatoes. Garnish with fresh parsley and chopped chives for a pop of color. Enjoy!
