Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb Chicken Breast: Diced into bite-sized pieces
  • 2 cups Potatoes: Cubed
  • 6 slices Bacon: Chopped
  • 1 cup BBQ Sauce: Your favorite variety
  • 1 tsp Smoked Paprika:
  • 1 tsp Garlic Powder:
  • 1 tsp Onion Powder:
  • Salt and Pepper: To taste
  • 2 Green Onions: Chopped

  4. Combine and Serve: Once the potatoes are cooked, add the crispy bacon and shredded cheddar cheese. Stir until the cheese is melted and everything is well combined. Garnish with chopped green onions before serving.
