INGREDIENTS:
  • Chicken breasts: 2 approx. 500 grams
  • Russet potatoes: 4 medium-sized about 1 kg
  • Olive oil: 2 tbsp 30 ml
  • Sriracha sauce: 3 tbsp 45 ml
  • Grated cheese Cheddar or mozzarella: 1 cup (250 ml)
  • Green onions scallions: 2, finely chopped
  • Greek yogurt for topping: 2 tbsp (30 ml)
  • Salt: 1 tsp 5 ml
  • Pepper: 1/2 tsp 2.5 ml
  • Preparation & Cooking Time: Approx. 1 hour

Method
 

INSTRUCTIONS:
  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). While it’s warming up, wash and peel the russet potatoes.
  2. Cut these potatoes into fry-like shapes, ensuring they’re uniform in size. This ensures even cooking.
  3. Toss these fries in 1 tbsp (15 ml) of olive oil, salt, and pepper.
  4. Lay them out on a baking sheet. Pop them in the oven for about 25-30 minutes. They should be golden and crisp.
  5. While the fries are baking, let’s get that chicken ready. Slice the chicken breasts into bite-sized pieces.
  6. Heat the remaining 1 tbsp of olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Toss in the chicken.
  7. Cook the chicken for 5-7 minutes until it’s no longer pink in the middle. Time to spice things up! Add in the Sriracha sauce and mix well.
  8. Once your fries are done, lay them out on a serving tray. It’s time to assemble our High Protein Sriracha Chicken Cheese Fries.
  9. Sprinkle the spicy chicken pieces evenly over the fries.
  10. Top it off with that tempting grated cheese.
  11. Put the tray back in the oven for an additional 5-7 minutes or until the cheese has beautifully melted.
  12. Finally, garnish with finely chopped green onions and dollops of Greek yogurt.

Notes

TIPS:
  • For an added protein kick, consider mixing some protein powder in the Greek yogurt.
  • Opt for a low-fat cheese variant if you’re looking to cut back on calories.
    If you’re not a fan of too much spice, you can reduce the Sriracha sauce by half.
