Description

A flavorful Garlic Parmesan Chicken and Potatoes Skillet that’s quick and easy to prepare, packed with delicious garlic and cheesy goodness.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 pieces boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 3 cups baby potatoes quartered
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 3 cloves garlic minced
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 1/4 cup chicken broth
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1 tbsp chopped parsley for garnish

Instructions

  1. Preheat the air fryer to 400°F (200°C). Toss the baby potatoes with 1 tablespoon olive oil, 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder, 1/2 teaspoon paprika, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Air fry for 12-15 minutes until crispy.
  2. Season the chicken breasts with salt, pepper, and the remaining garlic powder and paprika.
  3. In a large skillet over medium-high heat, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil. Sear the chicken breasts for 4-5 minutes per side until golden brown and cooked through. Remove and set aside.
  4. In the same skillet, add minced garlic and sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant.
  5. Pour in the chicken broth and heavy cream. Bring to a gentle simmer, then stir in the grated Parmesan cheese until the sauce thickens slightly.
  6. Return the cooked chicken breasts to the skillet and spoon the sauce over them.
  7. Top with shredded mozzarella cheese and cover with a lid until the cheese melts.
  8. Add the air-fried potatoes to the skillet and garnish with chopped parsley before serving.

Notes

  • This recipe can be made in a standard skillet if you prefer not to use an air fryer.
  • Feel free to adjust the amount of garlic to suit your taste.
  • You can substitute heavy cream with half-and-half for a lighter option.
