Notes

  • The longer you can marinate the better, overnight is best!
  • Pounding your chicken until it is thinner will help it to be more tender.
  • If you don’t have fingerling potatoes you can cut up russet potatoes in ½ inch square cubes.
 
Substitutions for this recipe:
  • You can substitute olive oil with avocado oil or melted, refined coconut oil.
