Equipment

  • Air fryer
  • Frying pan
  • Baking dish
  • Mixing bowl
  • Knife and cutting board
  • Wooden spoon or spatula

Ingredients
  

  • For the Chicken:
  • 350 g diced chicken breast
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon garlic granules
  • 1 teaspoon dried parsley
  • 1/2 diced onion
  • 1/2 diced pepper
  • For the Potatoes:
  • 550 g Maris Piper potatoes
  • Salt and pepper
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon garlic granules
  • For the Sauce:
  • 100 ml chicken stock
  • 80 g Philadelphia cream cheese
  • 2-3 crushed garlic cloves
  • 60 g sriracha sauce
  • 4 tablespoons sweet chili sauce
  • 20 g additional sriracha
  • Toppings:
  • 40 g reduced-fat cheddar cheese
  • 1 tablespoon sriracha mayo
  • Spring onion for garnish

Instructions
 

  • I start by preparing the potatoes. I cut the Maris Piper potatoes into small cubes and place them in a bowl. I add salt, pepper, paprika, and garlic granules, along with a light spray of oil. Then, I cook them in the air fryer for about 20-25 minutes until they’re nice and crispy.
  • While the potatoes are cooking, I heat a frying pan over medium heat and add the diced onion and pepper. I fry them for a few minutes until they soften, then add the crushed garlic and fry for an additional 30 seconds until fragrant.
  • Next, I add the diced chicken to the pan. I cook it until it’s golden all over, then sprinkle in the paprika, garlic granules, and dried parsley. I pour in the chicken stock and let it reduce slightly before stirring in the Philadelphia cream cheese. I mix everything well until all the chicken is coated in the creamy sauce.
  • Once everything is cooked, I gently fold in the crispy potatoes and scatter grated cheddar cheese on top. I then transfer the skillet to the oven to bake until the cheese is golden and melted.
  • Finally, I top the dish with a drizzle of sriracha mayo, chopped spring onions, and a sprinkle of parsley for a lovely finishing touch.

Notes

When cooking the chicken, make sure it is cooked through and reaches a safe internal temperature. Also, be careful when mixing the sauce into the chicken to avoid splattering. Stir gently to keep everything combined without making a mess.
