### 👩🍳 How to Make It
#### 1. **Prepare the Chicken and Potatoes**
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Season the chicken with salt and pepper. In a large oven-safe skillet or baking dish, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Brown the chicken for about 3-4 minutes per side until golden. Remove and set aside.
Add the potato chunks to the same skillet, tossing them to coat in the oil and chicken drippings. Season with salt and pepper.
#### 2. **Make the Garlic Parmesan Cream Sauce**
Lower the heat and add butter to the skillet. Once melted, sauté the minced garlic until fragrant (about 1 minute). Pour in the heavy cream and stir in the Parmesan cheese. Simmer gently until the sauce thickens slightly.
#### 3. **Combine and Bake**
Return the chicken to the skillet, nestling it among the potatoes. Spoon some sauce over the chicken and potatoes. Transfer the skillet to the oven and bake for 25–30 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender and the chicken is cooked through.
#### 4. **Garnish and Serve**
Sprinkle fresh parsley or thyme over the top before serving for a fresh, herbal finish.
