High Protein Creamy Garlic Cheesy Chicken & Potatoes

Print Recipe

A comforting dish featuring succulent chicken breasts, tender potatoes, and a rich creamy garlic cheese sauce.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 4 medium potatoes, peeled and diced
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1/2 cup chicken broth
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 tablespoon fresh thyme (or 1 teaspoon dried thyme)
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh parsley for garnish

Instructions

  1. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the diced potatoes and cook until golden and tender, about 8-10 minutes. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
  2. Season the chicken breasts with salt, pepper, and garlic powder. In the same skillet, cook the chicken for about 5-6 minutes on each side until browned and cooked through. Remove from the skillet and let it rest.
  3. Add minced garlic to the skillet and cook until fragrant. Pour in the heavy cream and chicken broth, stirring to combine; simmer for 3-5 minutes until it thickens slightly.
  4. Add mozzarella and Parmesan cheese to the sauce, and stir until melted and smooth.
  5. Slice the chicken breasts and return the potatoes to the skillet, stirring into the creamy sauce. Arrange the sliced chicken on top, simmer to combine flavors for 2-3 minutes.
  6. Serve on plates, garnished with fresh parsley.

Notes

Consider using skinless chicken thighs for extra juiciness. Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
