Ingredients
  

  • 800g chicken breast, cubed
  • 3-4 garlic cloves, minced
  • 2 tsp onion powder
  • 2 tsp mixed herbs
  • 1 tsp chili flakes
  • 2 tsp paprika
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 2 tsp olive oil
  • 800g uncooked potatoes, cubed
  • 1 tsp salt, garlic powder, mixed herbs, chili flakes, paprika
  • Olive oil or cooking spray (optional)
  • 120ml milk (any type)
  • 100g light cream cheese (Philadelphia Lightest)
  • 40g grated Parmesan
  • Extra seasoning (salt, garlic, mixed herbs)
  • 50g shredded mozzarella (or any low-fat cheese)
  • Fresh parsley for garnish

Method
 

  1. Cook the potatoes by air frying at 200°C / 400°F for 18-20 minutes or oven bake at 200°C / 400°F for 20-23 minutes until golden and crispy.
  2. Season the chicken breast cubes with garlic, onion powder, mixed herbs, chili flakes, paprika, and salt.
  3. Sauté the seasoned chicken in 2 tsp olive oil over medium heat for 5-6 minutes until cooked through and juicy.
  4. Lower the heat and add milk and light cream cheese to the pan; stir continuously until the sauce is smooth and creamy.
  5. Mix the crispy potatoes into the creamy chicken mixture.
  6. Sprinkle shredded mozzarella on top, cover the pan and cook for an additional 4-5 minutes until the cheese melts.
  7. Garnish with fresh parsley and serve hot.

Notes

  • Watch the potatoes closely to avoid drying out; use cooking spray if not using olive oil. Lower the heat before adding milk and cream cheese to prevent curdling. Stir cream cheese until smooth before mixing in potatoes. Let cheese melt fully for a gooey, indulgent finish.
