Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 4 pieces Chicken Breast the main protein, tender and juicy
  • 4 cloves Garlic adds aromatic richness to the sauce
  • 1 cup Heavy Cream creates that luscious creamy texture
  • 1 pound Baby Potatoes perfectly bite-sized and crispy when roasted
  • 2 teaspoons Italian Seasoning enhanced flavor combination with herbs
  • 2 tablespoons Olive Oil for roasting and adding healthy fats
  • 1/2 cup Parmesan Cheese for a delicious cheesy finish

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Start by preheating your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Wash and halve the baby potatoes. Toss them with olive oil, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper, then spread them on a baking sheet.
  3. Place the baking sheet in the oven and roast the potatoes for about 20-25 minutes or until they are golden brown.
Cooking Chicken
  1. While the potatoes are roasting, heat a skillet over medium heat. Add a little olive oil and sear the chicken breasts for about 5-7 minutes on each side until they are no longer pink. Remove and set aside.
  2. In the same skillet, add minced garlic and sauté for about a minute.
  3. Pour in heavy cream and bring to a simmer, then stir in grated Parmesan cheese until melted and smooth.
  4. Return the chicken to the skillet, spoon the creamy garlic sauce over it, and let it simmer on low for another 5 minutes.
Serving
  1. Plate the chicken with roasted baby potatoes, drizzling extra sauce over the top.

Notes

Pro Tips: For a deeper flavor, marinate the chicken in olive oil, garlic, and Italian herbs for at least an hour before cooking. Try using different cheese for a unique twist, or add some spinach or sun-dried tomatoes into the sauce for extra flavor. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days, or freeze for up to 2 months.
