Ingredients

4 boneless skinless chicken breasts (pounded to even thickness) OR 4-6 chicken thighs + salt and pepper to taste
1 cup thinly sliced potatoes (see note)
1 tablespoon minced garlic (I added extra whole cloves at the end for aesthetic, completely optional)
½ teaspoon finely chopped rosemary (see note)
½ teaspoon finely chopped thyme
¼ teaspoon finely chopped oregano
1 cup heavy cream
salt and pepper to taste
fresh herbs for topping (optional)

Instructions

Grease a large pan or skillet. Season chicken with salt and pepper to taste. Add chicken to pan and cook over medium heat 5-6 minutes on each side until browned and cooked through. Transfer to a plate and cover to keep warm.
Add potatoes, garlic, and herbs to pan and cook for 5-7 minutes until potatoes are easily pierced with a fork and browned on the edges. (make sure to turn the potatoes half way through so they cook on both sides)
Add heavy cream and cook another 4-5 minutes until hot throughout and thickened, being sure to stir periodically. Season with salt and pepper to taste. (for me this was bout ¼ teaspoon each salt and pepper)
Add chicken to pan and turn to coat in the cream sauce. Garnish with garlic cloves and herbs if desired and serve hot.
