How to Make Garlic Parmesan Chicken with Cheesy Potatoes

Ingredients:

4 pieces Chicken (The main protein source, providing a satisfying flavor and juicy texture.)
2 tablespoons Garlic, minced (Adds a rich aroma and robust flavor; fresh garlic preferred.)
1 cup Butter (Creates a creamy, rich sauce.)
1 cup Heavy Cream (Forms the base of the sauce, giving it a silky texture.)
1 cup Parmesan Cheese, grated (Introduces a wonderfully salty and savory flavor.)
2 cups Potatoes, diced (Adds heartiness and serves as a comforting side.)
Seasoning (Salt and Pepper to taste) (Enhances the flavors of all ingredients.)

Directions:

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat.
Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant.
Add the chicken pieces to the skillet and season with salt and pepper. Brown them for about 5-7 minutes on each side.
Once the chicken is browned, pour in the heavy cream and stir in the grated Parmesan cheese until well combined.
Add the diced potatoes to the skillet and stir to ensure they are covered with the sauce.
Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken is fully cooked and the potatoes are tender.
Take the skillet out of the oven, let it cool for a few minutes, and then enjoy!
