Ingredients:
- 1.5 lbs (680g) boneless, skinless chicken thighs, cut into 1-inch pieces
- 1.5 lbs (680g) Yukon Gold potatoes, scrubbed and cut into 1-inch cubes
- 1 large yellow onion, chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon dried Italian seasoning
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley (for garnish)
- 4 tablespoons (57g) unsalted butter
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 1.5 cups (355ml) chicken broth
- ½ cup (50g) grated Parmesan cheese, plus more for serving
- ¼ cup heavy cream
Instructions:
- Toss the chicken and potatoes in a bowl with olive oil, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Ensure everything is well coated.
- Heat the skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the chicken until browned on all sides. Don’t worry about cooking it all the way through at this stage. Remove chicken from skillet and set aside.
- Add the onion and potatoes to the skillet and cook, stirring occasionally, until the potatoes are tender and slightly browned. Add minced garlic during the last minute of cooking.
- Melt butter in the skillet. Whisk in flour and cook for 1 minute to make a roux. Gradually whisk in chicken broth until smooth. Bring to a simmer, stirring constantly.
- Reduce heat to low. Stir in Parmesan cheese until melted and smooth. Stir in heavy cream.
- Return the chicken to the skillet. Stir to combine. If your skillet is not oven-safe, transfer the mixture to a baking dish. If the internal temperature of chicken is not 165°F, Place the skillet (or baking dish) in a preheated oven at 375°F (190°C) and bake until chicken is fully cooked (internal temperature of 165°F) (about 5-10 minutes). Alternatively, if the chicken is already at temperature, simmer on the stovetop on low heat until the potatoes are cooked through, making sure the sauce is consistent (about 5-10 minutes).
- Garnish with fresh parsley and extra Parmesan cheese. Serve immediately.
