Ingredients
For the BBQ Chicken 🍗:
2 chicken breasts, cut into bite-sized chunks
1/2 cup BBQ sauce (store-bought or homemade) 🍯
1 tbsp olive oil 🫒
Salt and pepper to taste 🧂
For the Roasted Potatoes 🥔:
1 lb baby potatoes, halved or quartered
2 tbsp olive oil 🫒
1 tsp garlic powder 🧄
1/2 tsp smoked paprika 🌶️
Salt and pepper to taste 🧂
For the Steamed Broccoli 🥦:
2 cups broccoli florets
1 tbsp olive oil or butter 🧈 (optional)

Directions 📝
Roast the Potatoes:
Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Toss baby potatoes with olive oil, garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Spread on a baking sheet and roast for 25-30 minutes, flipping halfway, until golden and crispy.
Cook the BBQ Chicken:
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Season chicken with salt and pepper and sauté for 5-6 minutes, until browned.
Reduce heat to low, add BBQ sauce, and stir to coat the chicken evenly. Simmer for 2-3 minutes until the sauce thickens and the chicken is fully cooked.
Steam the Broccoli:
Steam broccoli florets in a pot with 1 inch of boiling water for 4-5 minutes until tender but still crisp. Toss with olive oil or butter if desired and sprinkle with a pinch of salt.
Assemble the Plate:
Serve BBQ chicken alongside the roasted potatoes and steamed broccoli in a bowl or on a plate.
Tips & Variations 🌟:
Add a drizzle of ranch or sour cream over the broccoli for extra flavor. 🥗
Swap BBQ chicken for teriyaki chicken for an Asian-inspired twist. 🍜
Toss the potatoes with grated Parmesan for a cheesy upgrade. 🧀
