Instructions

Step 1: Prepare the Potatoes

Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F).
Place the potato chunks in a large bowl. Add salt, garlic powder, sweet paprika, and black pepper. Toss well to coat.
Drizzle olive oil over the potatoes and mix again to ensure an even coating.
Arrange the potatoes on a baking sheet in a single layer.
Roast for 25-30 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden and crispy.

Step 2: Prepare the Chicken and Vegetables

In a large bowl, combine the chicken pieces with salt, soy sauce, garlic powder, black pepper, olive oil, and cornstarch. Mix well to coat.
Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and drizzle with olive oil.
Sauté the sliced onion until translucent.
Add the marinated chicken to the skillet. Cook for 5-7 minutes, turning occasionally, until the chicken is browned and cooked through.
Add the sliced red and green bell peppers. Cook for another 3-4 minutes, keeping the vegetables tender but crisp.
Stir in the chopped spring onions and cook for 1 more minute.

Step 3: Serve and Enjoy

Transfer the cooked chicken and vegetables to a serving platter.
Serve alongside the roasted potatoes for a complete, satisfying meal.
