A creamy garlic herb chicken dish with mushrooms and baby potatoes, cooked in one pan for easy cleanup.
Ingredients
Scale
- 6 bone-in chicken pieces (mix of thighs and drumsticks)
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 12 ounces baby potatoes, halved
- 8 ounces mushrooms, sliced
- 1 small onion, finely chopped
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
- 1 1/2 cups chicken broth
- 3/4 cup heavy cream
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1 teaspoon dried parsley
- 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley, for garnish
Instructions
- Pat the chicken dry with paper towels. Season both sides with salt, black pepper, paprika, and garlic powder.
- Heat the olive oil and butter in a large skillet or Dutch oven over medium-high heat.
- Add the chicken pieces and sear for 4 to 5 minutes per side until golden brown. Transfer to a plate.
- In the same pan, add the chopped onion and mushrooms. Cook for 4 to 5 minutes until softened.
- Stir in the garlic and cook for 30 seconds. Sprinkle in the flour and stir well for 1 minute.
- Slowly pour in the chicken broth, stirring to combine. Add the heavy cream, thyme, parsley, and oregano.
- Add the baby potatoes and stir gently. Return the chicken to the pan, nestling it into the sauce.
- Cover and simmer on low for 30 to 35 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the potatoes are fork-tender.
- Spoon the creamy sauce over the chicken, garnish with fresh parsley, and serve warm.
Notes
