Steps for Microwave Chicken and Potatoes

Cut the chicken into strips and marinate with a little milk.
Peel and cut the potatoes, placing them in a bowl of cold water to lose some starch. This procedure will make them tender during cooking.
Place the potatoes on the crisp plate (or in a microwave dish), drizzle with oil, and cook with crisp function for 10 minutes (alternatively use grill and microwave combined at 650w if you don’t have the crisp plate).
Meanwhile, prepare the breading by combining breadcrumbs, Parmesan, salt, spices, and a drizzle of oil. Bread the chicken strips.
Remove the potatoes from the oven, stir them, and place the breaded chicken strips on top. Cook for another 10 minutes with the same settings as before.
Serve immediately, with sauces of your choice.
