Ingredients
  

For the Honey BBQ Chicken:

4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts

1/2 cup honey

1/2 cup BBQ sauce (your choice)

2 tablespoons soy sauce

1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 teaspoon onion powder

Salt and pepper to taste

Fresh parsley, for garnish

For the Creamy Garlic Parmesan Potatoes:

1.5 pounds baby potatoes, halved

1/2 cup heavy cream

1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese

3 cloves garlic, minced

2 tablespoons olive oil

1 teaspoon dried thyme

Salt and pepper to taste

Chopped chives or parsley, for garnish

Instructions
 

Prepare the Marinade: In a bowl, whisk together honey, BBQ sauce, soy sauce, apple cider vinegar, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper until well combined.

    Marinate the Chicken: Place the chicken breasts in a resealable bag or shallow dish and pour the marinade over them. Seal the bag or cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes (or up to 4 hours for better flavor).

      Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

        Bake the Chicken: Remove the chicken from the marinade, reserving the marinade. Place the chicken breasts on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Brush the tops with some reserved marinade. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through (internal temperature should reach 165°F/74°C).

          Cook the Potatoes: While the chicken is baking, in a large pot, add the halved baby potatoes and cover them with water. Bring to a boil and cook for about 10-12 minutes, or until fork-tender. Drain the potatoes.

            Sauté the Garlic: In a large skillet over medium heat, add olive oil and minced garlic. Sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant but not burnt.

              Combine Ingredients: Add the drained potatoes to the skillet and sprinkle with thyme, salt, and pepper. Pour in the heavy cream and mix gently to coat the potatoes. Add the grated Parmesan cheese and stir until well combined and creamy. Cook for 2-3 minutes until warmed through.

                Serving: Once the chicken is done, let it rest for a few minutes before slicing. Serve the honey BBQ chicken garnished with fresh parsley alongside the creamy garlic Parmesan potatoes topped with chives or parsley.

                  Enjoy: Dig into your delicious high protein meal, balancing flavors of sweet and savory with creamy perfection!
