Creating the High Protein Creamy Garlic Cheesy Chicken & Potatoes is simple if you follow these steps:
1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
2. Prepare Chicken: Season the chicken breasts with garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and pepper.
3. Sear Chicken: In a large oven-safe skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Sear the chicken breasts for about 4-5 minutes on each side until golden brown. Remove and set aside.
4. Cook Potatoes: In the same skillet, add the halved baby potatoes and season with salt and pepper. Cook for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
5. Add Garlic: Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional minute until fragrant.
6. Make Sauce: Pour in the heavy cream, and add cheddar and Parmesan cheese. Stir until the cheese is melted and the sauce is smooth.
7. Combine: Return the seared chicken breasts to the skillet, nestling them into the sauce and potatoes.
8. Bake: Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 25 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C).
9. Garnish: Once cooked, remove from the oven, and garnish with chopped parsley before serving.
