Roast the Potatoes<\/h3>\n<p>Preheat the oven to <strong>425\u00b0F<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Place the halved potatoes on a large baking sheet. Toss them with 2 tablespoons olive oil, \u00bd teaspoon salt, \u00bc teaspoon black pepper, and Italian seasoning.<\/p>\n<p>Arrange the potatoes <strong>cut-side down<\/strong> in a single layer, leaving a little space between them.<\/p>\n<p>Roast for <strong>30 to 35 minutes<\/strong>, or until the potatoes are golden brown on the bottom and tender in the center.<\/p>\n<h3>2. Season the Chicken<\/h3>\n<p>While the potatoes are roasting, pat the chicken breasts dry with paper towels.<\/p>\n<p>Season both sides evenly with the remaining salt and black pepper.<\/p>\n<p>If the chicken breasts are very thick, gently pound them to an even thickness so they cook more evenly.<\/p>\n<h3>3. Cook the Chicken<\/h3>\n<p>Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.<\/p>\n<p>Add the chicken and cook for about <strong>5 to 7 minutes per side<\/strong>, depending on thickness, until deeply golden brown and cooked through.<\/p>\n<p>Transfer the chicken to a plate and let it rest while you prepare the sauce.<\/p>\n<h3>4. Saut\u00e9 the Garlic<\/h3>\n<p>Reduce the heat to medium-low.<\/p>\n<p>Add the minced garlic to the same skillet and cook for about <strong>30 seconds<\/strong>, stirring constantly, until fragrant. Be careful not to burn the garlic.<\/p>\n<h3>5. Deglaze the Pan<\/h3>\n<p>Pour in the chicken broth and scrape the bottom of the skillet with a wooden spoon to loosen all those delicious browned bits.<\/p>\n<p>Let the broth simmer for <strong>2 to 3 minutes<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<h3>6. Make the Creamy Parmesan Sauce<\/h3>\n<p>Pour in the heavy cream and stir well.<\/p>\n<p>Add the Parmesan cheese and red pepper flakes if using.<\/p>\n<p>Simmer gently for <strong>3 to 5 minutes<\/strong>, stirring occasionally, until the sauce becomes creamy and slightly thickened.<\/p>\n<p>Do not let the sauce boil aggressively, as gentle heat helps keep it smooth and creamy.<\/p>\n<h3>7. Add the Tomatoes<\/h3>\n<p>Stir in the halved cherry tomatoes and cook for about <strong>1 to 2 minutes<\/strong>, just until they begin to soften while still keeping their fresh flavor.<\/p>\n<h3>8. Finish the Chicken<\/h3>\n<p>Slice the rested chicken into thick pieces or leave the breasts whole.<\/p>\n<p>Return the chicken to the skillet and spoon the creamy garlic-Parmesan sauce generously over the top.<\/p>\n<p>Let everything warm together for another <strong>1 to 2 minutes<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<h3>9. Serve<\/h3>\n<p>Arrange the golden roasted potatoes on a large serving platter or individual plates.<\/p>\n<p>Add the creamy garlic chicken and spoon plenty of sauce over the chicken and potatoes.<\/p>\n<p>Scatter the cherry tomatoes around the dish and finish generously with freshly chopped parsley.<\/p>\n<p>Serve immediately while hot and creamy.<\/p>\n<h2>Tips for the Best Results<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>For extra-crispy potatoes:<\/strong> Always place them cut-side down on the baking sheet and avoid overcrowding the pan.<\/li>\n<li><strong>For juicy chicken:<\/strong> Don&#8217;t overcook the chicken. Use a meat thermometer and cook until the thickest part reaches <strong>165\u00b0F<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<li><strong>For a thicker sauce:<\/strong> Let the cream sauce simmer for an additional 1 to 2 minutes.<\/li>\n<li><strong>For extra garlic flavor:<\/strong> Add one additional minced garlic clove to the sauce.<\/li>\n<li><strong>For more heat:<\/strong> Increase the red pepper flakes to \u00bd teaspoon.<\/li>\n<li><strong>For extra richness:<\/strong> Add an extra tablespoon of Parmesan just before serving.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Serving Suggestion<\/h2>\n<p>Serve this creamy garlic herb chicken with the golden potatoes, juicy cherry tomatoes, and plenty of sauce spooned over everything. A final sprinkle of fresh parsley makes this easy skillet dinner look just as delicious as it tastes.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Creamy Garlic Herb Chicken with Golden Potatoes Juicy, golden-brown chicken breasts served with crispy roasted potatoes, fresh cherry tomatoes, and&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":7229,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-7228","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-recipe"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/recipes.ukbiddingdirectory.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7228","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/recipes.ukbiddingdirectory.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/recipes.ukbiddingdirectory.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/recipes.ukbiddingdirectory.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/recipes.ukbiddingdirectory.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=7228"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/recipes.ukbiddingdirectory.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7228\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":7230,"href":"https:\/\/recipes.ukbiddingdirectory.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7228\/revisions\/7230"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/recipes.ukbiddingdirectory.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/7229"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/recipes.ukbiddingdirectory.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=7228"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/recipes.ukbiddingdirectory.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=7228"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/recipes.ukbiddingdirectory.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=7228"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
