Ingredients
  

Ingredients
  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 1.5 lbs)
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 6 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 cup chicken broth
  • 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 tsp Italian seasoning
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh parsley for garnish
  • 2 lbs russet potatoes, cubed
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • 1/2 tsp onion powder
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Method
 

Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Cut potatoes into 1-inch cubes and place in large bowl. Toss with olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, onion powder, salt, and pepper until evenly coated. Spread potatoes in single layer on baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  2. Bake potatoes for 25-30 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden brown and crispy on the outside while tender on the inside.
  3. While potatoes are roasting, season chicken breasts with salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning. Heat olive oil in large skillet over medium-high heat. Add chicken and cook for 6-7 minutes per side, until golden brown and cooked through (internal temperature 165°F). Remove chicken and set aside.
  4. In the same skillet, add minced garlic and cook for 1 minute until fragrant. Pour in chicken broth, scraping up any browned bits from bottom of pan. Reduce heat to medium and simmer for 2-3 minutes. Remove from heat and whisk in Greek yogurt and Parmesan cheese until smooth and creamy.
  5. Return chicken to skillet, spooning sauce over top. Simmer for 2-3 minutes to heat through. Serve chicken and sauce over crispy potatoes, garnished with fresh parsley.

Notes

Meal prep friendly: stores for 3-4 days. Reheat in oven or air fryer to maintain potato crispiness. Don't overcrowd baking sheet for maximum crispiness. If sauce thickens too much, thin with broth or water. For low carb option, serve with roasted broccoli or cauliflower.
