Ingredient Preparation Tips
For seamless prep and uniform potato cubes, enlist the help of a Mueller Pro-Series 10-in-1, 8 Blade Vegetable Chopper. This not only speeds up the chopping process but ensures even pieces for consistent cooking. Likewise, using a sturdy Bamboo Cutting Board keeps your prep clean and organized, especially when dealing with raw poultry and veggies.
And for the heart of your sauce, blending cream cheese, milk, and garlic in a Ninja BL610 Professional 72 Oz Countertop Blender ensures a silky-smooth, lump-free base.
Recipe Instructions
Roasting brings out deep flavor in both chicken and potatoes, and to guarantee even, stick-free cooking, line your baking sheet with Reynolds Kitchens Brown Parchment Paper Roll. This also simplifies cleanup, making the whole meal as fuss-free as possible.

This dish is best served hot and bubbly straight from the oven—top it all with a little extra fresh parsley or chives for color and zip. If you find yourself with leftovers, portion individual servings into Rubbermaid Brilliance Food Storage Containers for easy meal prep and lunch enjoyment throughout the week. The flavors meld beautifully, making leftovers almost as good as the first bite.
