Ingredients

  • 2 whole chicken breast
  • 4 cups frozen french fries
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp salt
  • ½ tsp black pepper
  • 1 tsp paprika

Instructions

  1. 1

    Preheat your grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Toss the 4 cups frozen french fries with 1 tbsp olive oil and spread on a baking sheet; place in a 425°F oven to cook until golden and crispy, about 15-20 minutes.

  2. 2

    While fries cook, season the 2 chicken breasts with 1 tsp salt, 0.5 tsp black pepper, and 1 tsp paprika. Rub with the remaining 1 tbsp olive oil.

  3. 3

    Place chicken on the hot grill and cook for 6-7 minutes per side, until grill marks appear and the thickest part reaches 165°F or is no longer pink inside.

  4. 4

    Remove chicken from grill and let rest for 2 minutes. Serve hot with the crispy fries on the side.
