This takes about 50 minutes of preparation: 12 minutes to microwave the potatoes and heat up the oven to 500 degrees, another 5 to cut them up (by that time the oven should be hot enough), then another 25 to roast the potatoes and cook the chicken, then 3 to put the potatoes in serving bowls. It serves three: my wife usually eats it too. You can get all the ingredients from Costco except the thyme and dill.

Ingredients for chicken:
Turn the oven on at 500. Fill a large plate with potatoes and cook them in the microwave until they are almost cooked (I press the "potato" button 3 times and it runs about 12 minutes). Make sure they are potatoes where you want to eat the skin, like red or yellow potatoes.
While the potatoes are microwaving, get a baking tray and line it with aluminum foil. Put on 1 tablespoon olive oil. Swish it around so it covers all the aluminum foil so the potatoes won't stick to it.
When the potatoes are done, cut them in half, then cut them into 1/4 inch slices. Leave the skins on. Dump the cut-up potatoes on the oiled tray.
Spread out the potatoes as best you can so they are in a single layer. Try to get olive oil on them.
From high above the tray sprinkle on salt, thyme, and paprika, trying to spread the spices evenly across all the potatoes.
About this time the oven should finish preheating. Put them in the 500 degree oven and set a 25 minute timer.
Put the frozen chicken in a pan on stovetop burner and add 1 teaspoon olive oil. Set stovetop burner to medium.
Cover the chicken to keep the heat in to thaw it.
Watch chicken, flipping occasionally, until it is thawed. Once it is thawed cut it up with the metal spatula into bite-sized pieces. Kyle likes monitoring the chicken and cutting it up.
Once the chicken is cut up, cover again, and cook at least 4 minutes longer. Watch that it does get done and doesn't get overdone.
Once the chicken is cooked, add 1 tablespoon feta and 1/2 teaspoon dill. Keep burner on low until it is time to serve.
The potatoes finish a little later than the chicken.
Use the spatula to put the potatoes in a serving bowl. Then bring the serving bowl to the table, and put the pan on a hotplate on the table.
Serve. If Kyle is eating, be sure to give everyone else chicken and potatoes first. Kyle will eat all that remains.
Afterwards, use Barkeeper's Friend to clean the pan, and soap to finish cleaning the pan and spatula and bowl.
