Ingredients
  

For the chicken:
  • 2 chicken breasts
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • Salt and black pepper
For the fries:
  • 2 large russet potatoes
  • 2 tablespoons oil
  • Salt
  • Dried oregano or thyme
For the salad:
  • Romaine or butter lettuce
  • 1/2 cucumber
  • 1 carrot
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice or apple cider vinegar

Method
 

  1. Step 1: Cut your chicken breasts into cubes. Make them all the same size so they cook evenly. Put them in a bowl with olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix everything with your hands until each piece is coated.
  2. Step 2: Peel your potatoes and cut them into thin strips. Put the strips in a bowl of cold water and let them sit for 30 minutes. This pulls out the starch and makes them extra crispy. Dry them really well with a kitchen towel. Toss them with oil, salt, and your dried herbs.
  3. Step 3: Turn your oven to 200°C or 400°F. Spread the potato strips on a baking sheet. Make sure they don't overlap. Put them in the oven for 25 to 30 minutes. Flip them over halfway through so both sides get golden.
  4. Step 4: Heat a skillet on medium high heat. Add your seasoned chicken cubes. Cook them for 6 to 8 minutes. Toss them around every minute or so. They should turn golden brown on all sides.
  5. Step 5: Chop your lettuce into bite sized pieces. Slice the cucumber thin. Peel and shred the carrot. Put everything in a bowl.
  6. Step 6: Mix olive oil and lemon juice together in a small cup. Pour it over your salad right before serving. Toss everything together.
