Description
This German Fried Potatoes with Chicken recipe combines crispy bacon-infused potatoes with tender rotisserie chicken and a tangy apple cider vinegar sauce, all tossed with fresh green onions for a flavorful and satisfying meal ready in under 30 minutes.
Ingredients
Scale
Meat & Poultry
- 4 pieces of bacon
- 2 rotisserie chicken breasts, chopped
Vegetables
- 4 medium red potatoes, quartered
- 3 green onions, sliced thin (white and green parts)
Pantry Staples
- 2 tbsp all purpose flour
- 3 tbsp apple cider vinegar
- 1 1/2 cups chicken stock
- Black pepper, to taste
Instructions
- Shred Chicken: Shred or chop the two rotisserie chicken breasts into bite-sized pieces and set aside for later.
- Cook Bacon: In a large skillet over medium-high heat, cook the bacon pieces until they are crispy. Remove the bacon from the pan and drain on paper towels, reserving the bacon fat in the skillet.
- Fry Potatoes: Add the quartered red potatoes to the skillet with the bacon fat and fry them until they are golden brown and crispy on all sides. Season the potatoes with a pinch of black pepper. Once crispy, set the potatoes aside with the cooked bacon.
- Make Sauce: Add the all-purpose flour to the skillet with the bacon fat and stir continuously, cooking it for one to two minutes to remove the raw flour taste. Then pour in the apple cider vinegar and chicken stock, scraping the bottom of the pan to loosen any stuck bits. Continue stirring until the sauce thickens.
- Combine and Serve: Return the green onions, cooked bacon, fried potatoes, and shredded chicken to the skillet. Stir everything together gently to coat all ingredients evenly in the sauce. Serve immediately, garnished with additional green onions if desired.

- Adjust black pepper seasoning according to taste.
- This dish pairs well with a simple green salad or steamed vegetables for a complete meal.
- For a gluten-free version, substitute the all-purpose flour with a gluten-free flour blend or cornstarch.
