Instructions

Prepare the Marinade

In a large bowl, mix the olive oil, soy sauce, honey, garlic, paprika, salt, and pepper.

Pro tip: Let the chicken marinate for at least 1 hour for more flavor.

Marinate the Chicken

Add the chicken pieces to the marinade and mix well. Cover and let marinate in the refrigerator.

Pro tip: For even better flavor, marinate overnight.

Cook the Chicken

Preheat your BBQ to medium heat. Grill the chicken for about 6 to 8 minutes on each side, until fully cooked.

Pro tip: Use a meat thermometer to ensure the internal temperature reaches 165°F.

Prepare the Fries

While the chicken is cooking, prepare the fries according to the package instructions.

Pro tip: For crispy fries, make sure they are well spaced on the baking sheet.

Prepare the Brown Gravy

In a saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the flour and stir to form a roux.

Pro tip: Do not let the roux brown too long; it should remain golden.

Add the Broth

Gradually stir in the chicken broth, constantly stirring until the sauce thickens.

Pro tip: For a richer sauce, add a little cream at the end.

Assemble the Dish

On a plate, place a portion of fries, add the grilled chicken, then drizzle with brown gravy.

Pro tip: Top with cheese curds so they melt slightly.

Garnish

Add chopped green onions for a touch of freshness.

Pro tip: For an even bolder flavor, incorporate jalapeño peppers.
