### 👩‍🍳 How to Make It

#### Step 1: Cook the Chicken

Season the chicken with salt, pepper, and paprika. In a skillet, heat oil or butter over medium heat. Sear chicken for 4–5 minutes per side until golden and cooked through. Remove and set aside.

#### Step 2: Make the Creamy Garlic Sauce

In the same pan, add minced garlic and sauté for 30 seconds. Pour in chicken broth, scraping up the browned bits. Add cream and Parmesan, stirring until smooth and slightly thickened. Return the chicken to the pan and simmer for a few minutes.

#### Step 3: Sauté the Potatoes

While the sauce simmers, melt butter in another skillet. Add the boiled potato halves, herbs, salt, and pepper. Cook until golden and crisp on the edges.

#### Step 4: Serve It Up

Plate the creamy garlic chicken with a generous spoonful of sauce, and pair with the herb butter potatoes. Sprinkle with fresh parsley if desired.

### ❤️ Why My Family Loves It

This dish is **rich and comforting**, but not too heavy. The creamy sauce clings to the chicken perfectly, and those crisp-edged potatoes? Pure gold. It’s a meal that **feels like a treat**, but it’s easy enough to make even on a weeknight. And for whatever reason — maybe it’s the garlic, maybe it’s the love — my husband just can’t get enough of it.

### Final Thought

Some meals become family traditions without you realizing it. This one? It earned that status in record time. So if you’re looking for something **easy, comforting, and impossible to resist**, give this recipe a try. You might just find yourself cooking it again next week… and the week after.

Trust me — if your household is anything like mine, they’ll be pleading for it too. 😉
