Servings 6 servings

Ingredients
  

  • 1/2 cup olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 packet dry ranch dressing mix, OR make from a shortcut on this site
  • 14 medium potatoes, cubed, about 2 - 2 1/2 kilos of potatoes
  • 3 chicken breasts, boneless, skinless, cut into bite size pieces
  • 2 1/2 cups Cheddar cheese, shredded
  • 1 cup bacon, fried crisp and crumbled
  • 1 cup spring onions, chopped, white and green parts
  • 1 teaspoon pepper

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 250 C. Lightly grease a 9x13 baking dish with butter.
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine the olive oil, salt, ranch dressing mix, and pepper. Add the cubed potatoes and toss well to coat all the potatoes. Spoon the potatoes into the backing dish, leaving as much of the oil mixture in the bowl. Roast until the potatoes are crispy, about 1 hour, stirring every 15 minutes.
  • While the potatoes are roasting, add the chicken to the bowl with the oil mixture and toss to coat and set aside. In a separate bowl, mix together the cheese, bacon, and spring onion and set aside.
  • When the potatoes are crispy, remove from the oven and lower the temp to 200 C. Add the chicken to the top of the potatoes then top that with the cheese mixture and bake for another 15-20 minutes or until the cheese is melted. Remove from the oven and let this rest for 10 minutes. Serve with sour cream or ranch dressing.

Notes

For the cheese, figure about 180 Baht for a 250 gram block. For the bacon, I estimate about about 300 grams which for average bacon, figure 130 Baht total. The chicken runs about 60 Baht/kilo, 3 pieces will be less than that but I will use 60 Baht for the pricing here. For 6 servings, this is about $1.82 per serving.
