2️⃣ Cook & Glaze the Chicken:
Grill or bake the chicken at 400°F (200°C) for 20–25 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).

3️⃣ Roast the Potatoes & Fries:
Toss the baby potatoes with olive oil, paprika, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Toss the fries with vegetable oil and a pinch of salt. Spread both on separate baking sheets and roast at 425°F (220°C) for 25–30 minutes, turning halfway through, until golden brown and crispy. This makes an easy potato side dish, crispy fries recipe, and comfort food favorite.
