Chicken and Potatoes with Garlic Parmesan Cream Sauce
Ingredients:
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 4 cups baby potatoes, halved or quartered
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 tsp Italian seasoning (optional)
For the Garlic Parmesan Cream Sauce:
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 tbsp butter
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh parsley for garnish (optional)
Instructions:
- Prepare the Chicken and Potatoes:
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
- In a large mixing bowl, toss the baby potatoes with olive oil, salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning. Spread them in a single layer on a baking sheet.
- Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper. In a large oven-safe skillet, heat a bit of olive oil over medium-high heat. Sear the chicken breasts for about 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown.
- Combine and Bake:
- Once the chicken is browned, remove it from the skillet and place it on the baking sheet with the potatoes.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the potatoes are tender.
- Make the Garlic Parmesan Cream Sauce:
- In the same skillet used for the chicken, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant.
- Pour in the heavy cream and bring to a gentle simmer. Stir in the Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Cook for 2-3 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly.
- Serve:
- Once the chicken and potatoes are done, drizzle the garlic Parmesan cream sauce over the chicken and potatoes. Garnish with fresh parsley if desired.
Tips:
- You can add vegetables like spinach or broccoli to the dish for extra nutrition.
- For a bit of heat, add red pepper flakes to the cream sauce.
