To Serve (Optional)

Equipment

  • Oven or Air Fryer
  • Skillet
  • Blender

Method
 

  1. Set your oven to 220°C (200°C fan) or set your air fryer to 200°C/390°F.
  2. Pat the potatoes dry. Toss them with oil (if using), salt, herbs, paprika, garlic powder, and onion powder.
  3. Bake or air fry for 20–22 minutes, turning once, until the potatoes are golden and have a crust.
  4. Toss the cooked potatoes with grated Parmesan cheese and keep them warm.
  5. Mix the cubed chicken with garlic powder, paprika, cumin, salt, pepper, and olive oil.
  6. Sear the chicken in batches over medium heat using a small amount of light butter. Cook for about 5 minutes per side until golden brown and fully cooked.
  7. Reduce the heat. Add the honey and BBQ sauce. Toss for 1 minute until the chicken is glossy and coated.
  8. Finish the chicken by tossing it with the chopped fresh parsley.
  9. Blend the cottage cheese with milk, dried herbs, and garlic powder until the mixture is smooth. Stir in the grated Parmesan cheese.
  10. If you prefer the sauce warm, heat it gently on very low heat. Do not let it boil. Season the sauce to your taste.
  11. Divide the potatoes among 5 containers and top each portion with the glazed chicken.
  12. Spoon the creamy sauce over the top or pack it separately. Garnish with extra herbs if you like.
  13. Chill the meal quickly and refrigerate for up to 4 days. When reheating, heat the chicken and potatoes first, then add the sauce after heating for the best texture.
