Ingredients

  • 1.5 pounds baby gold potatoes
  • 2- pound chicken breasts boneless + skinless
  • Salt and pepper as much you like
  • ½ cup ranch dressing
  • 1 cup cooked bacon crumbled
  • 2 cups Mexican Cheese blend
  • ½ cup green onion diced

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to about 450 degrees Fahrenheit. Lightly grease a 9 x 13 baking dish.
  • Cut chicken into 1″ chunks.
  • Cut the potatoes into 1″ cubes with a knife.
  • Combine the potatoes with half of the ranch dressing, salt, and pepper, in a large mixing bowl.
  • Spread the potatoes evenly in the prepared baking dish (keep the bowl for the chicken.)
  • Bake the potatoes for half an hour, turning after every 10 minutes, until nearly done (They will not yet be fork tender).
  • Meanwhile, season the chicken with salt, pepper, and remaining ranch dressing in the same potato bowl (Additional seasoning options can be found in the notes section below).
  • Take the baking dish out from the oven after the potatoes have cooked for 30 minutes. Reduce the oven's temperature to 400°F.
  • Spread the marinated chicken evenly over the cooked potatoes.
  • Wrap aluminum foil over the baking dish (Caution: Use oven mitts when doing it because the baking dish will still be extremely hot).
  • Bake again in the oven for another 20 minutes, or until the chicken is thoroughly cooked.
  • Take it out from the oven. Sprinkle the bacon, shredded cheese, and green onion on top.
  • Return to the oven for another 7-9 minutes, or until the cheese melts and is bubbly.
  • Serve immediately and enjoy!
