Ingredients
  

For the High Protein Honey BBQ Chicken:

2 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts

1/2 cup honey

1/4 cup soy sauce

1/4 cup apple cider vinegar

2 tablespoons Dijon mustard

1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce

1 teaspoon smoked paprika

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 teaspoon onion powder

Salt and pepper to taste

Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

For the Creamy Garlic Parmesan Potatoes:

2 lbs baby potatoes, halved or quartered

1/2 cup heavy cream

1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese

4 cloves garlic, minced

2 tablespoons butter

1 teaspoon dried Italian herbs (or a mix of oregano, basil, and thyme)

Salt and pepper to taste

Chives or green onions, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions
 

Prep the Chicken Marinade:

    In a mixing bowl, whisk together honey, soy sauce, apple cider vinegar, Dijon mustard, Worcestershire sauce, smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper.

      Marinate the Chicken:

        Place the chicken breasts in a zip-top bag or a shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the chicken, ensuring it's well coated. Marinate for at least 30 minutes, preferably 2 hours in the refrigerator.

          Prepare the Potatoes:

            In a large pot, bring salted water to a boil. Add the baby potatoes and cook for about 10-15 minutes or until fork-tender. Drain and set aside.

              Make the Creamy Sauce:

                In the same pot, melt butter over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1-2 minutes until fragrant. Pour in the heavy cream, stirring well. Gradually add the grated Parmesan cheese and Italian herbs, stirring until the mixture is creamy. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

                  Combine Potatoes with Sauce:

                    Add the cooked potatoes to the creamy garlic sauce. Stir gently until the potatoes are fully coated. Remove from heat and keep warm.

                      Cook the Chicken:

                        Preheat the grill or a skillet over medium-high heat. Remove the chicken from the marinade, allowing excess to drip off, and cook for about 6-7 minutes per side or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C). Brush with additional marinade during the last few minutes of cooking for an extra glaze.

                          Serve:

                            Plate the honey BBQ chicken alongside a generous serving of creamy garlic Parmesan potatoes. Garnish the chicken with fresh parsley, and the potatoes with chives or green onions.

                              Enjoy your flavor-packed, protein-rich meal!
