Ingredients
Method
Preparation
- Peel (optional) and dice the potatoes into ½-inch cubes. Place them in a pot of salted water and boil until just tender, about 10-12 minutes. Drain and set aside.
- Season the chicken breasts generously with salt and pepper. Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and cook for 5-6 minutes per side or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C). Remove from the pan and let rest for 5 minutes, then slice thinly.
Cooking
- In the same pan, reduce the heat to medium and add 1 tablespoon of butter. Once melted, add the minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant but not browned. Reduce the heat to low.
- Stir in the shredded cheddar cheese and Greek yogurt. Mix continuously until the cheese is melted and the sauce is smooth. If the sauce is too thick, add a splash of water or chicken broth to loosen it.
- Add the cooked potatoes and sliced chicken back into the pan. Toss gently to coat everything evenly with the creamy garlic cheese sauce. Warm through for 2-3 minutes.
- Taste and adjust seasoning with salt, pepper, or extra garlic if desired. Remove from heat.
Serving
- Divide into 4 meal prep containers. Let cool before sealing to avoid condensation. Refrigerate for up to 4 days or freeze for up to 3 months.
Notes
For added flavor, marinate the chicken in some garlic and herbs before cooking. Feel free to add in other vegetables like bell peppers or spinach for extra nutrition. If you like a spicier dish, sprinkle some red pepper flakes in the sauce. Swap out the chicken for turkey, or use veggies only for a vegetarian version. Change the cheese to mozzarella or pepper jack for a different flavor.
