Instructions
Creating this Creamy Garlic Cheesy Chicken and Potatoes is simple and rewarding. Just follow these easy steps:
1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
2. Prepare Chicken: Season the chicken breasts with paprika, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Set aside.
3. Sauté Garlic: In a large oven-safe skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant.
4. Add Potatoes: Add the halved baby potatoes to the skillet, stirring to coat them in the garlic oil. Cook for about 5 minutes until they start to soften.
5. Brown Chicken: Push the potatoes to the sides of the skillet. Place the seasoned chicken breasts in the center and sear for about 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown.
6. Mix in Cream: Pour the heavy cream over the chicken and potatoes, ensuring everything is well coated.
7. Add Cheese: Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the top.
8. Bake: Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through (internal temperature should reach 165°F or 75°C).
9. Garnish: Once done, remove from the oven and let it rest for about 10 minutes. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley before serving.
