Ingredients
  

For the Potatoes

  • 5 small to medium potatoes peeled and cubed
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon pepper
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika

For the Chicken

  • 1 lb chicken breasts cubed
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon pepper
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1 teaspoon cumin
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 1 tablespoon minced garlic
  • 1/2 cup Buffalo Wild Wings Southwest Ranch
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

Instructions
 

Preparation

  • Peel, wash, and cut the potatoes into cubes.
  • Toss the potatoes with olive oil, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and smoked paprika.
  • Cook the potatoes in the air fryer at 400°F for about 20-25 minutes, shaking them a couple of times during cooking.
  • While the potatoes are cooking, cut the chicken into cubes.

Cooking

  • In a skillet over medium-high heat, add 2 tablespoons of butter.
  • Cook the sliced onions and green peppers until they are tender.
  • Add the chicken to the skillet and season with salt, pepper, smoked paprika, onion powder, cumin, and red pepper flakes. Cook until the chicken is done.
  • Add minced garlic and about 1/4 to 1/2 cup of Southwest Ranch sauce to the chicken.
  • Stir in the cooked potatoes.
  • Top with shredded cheese and broil in the oven for a few minutes to melt the cheese, or cover with a lid on the stove until the cheese melts.
  • Drizzle additional Southwest Ranch on top and enjoy.

Notes

Ensure the potatoes are cut evenly to cook at the same rate. Adjust the seasoning to taste. For a spicier flavor, add more red pepper flakes. Using precooked rotisserie chicken can make the recipe faster. Variations include using sweet potatoes instead of regular potatoes and adding corn or black beans for extra flavor.
