Ingredients

  • 3 chicken breasts trimmed and pounded flat
  • ½ tsp oregano
  • ½ tsp garlic powder
  • ½ tsp onion powder
  • ¼ tsp kosher salt
  • ½ tsp pepper
  • 3 tbsp olive oil extra virgin
  • ½ lb petite gold potatoes sliced in half
  • 1 small shallot minced
  • ¾ cup chicken broth
  • 1 wheel Boursin cheese 5.2 oz block, any flavor
  • 2 tbsp Italian parsley chopped

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Pound the chicken flat, season it with the oregano, garlic powder, onion powder, kosher salt, and pepper on both sides.
  • Next, add a generous drizzle of olive oil to a large pan over medium-high heat. Sear the chicken breasts on each side for 3-5 minutes (or until a golden crust forms). Remove the chicken from the pan and set them aside.
  • Add the halved potatoes to the pan and saute for 5 minutes. Add the minced shallot and saute for another minute or two.
  • Remove the potatoes from the pan and then deglaze the pan with the chicken broth. Turn the heat down to low. Add the Boursin cheese, whisk it until it’s melted.
  • Return the chicken and potatoes back to the pan and then bake it in the oven for 10-15 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temp of 165 degrees Fahrenheit and the potatoes are fork tender.
  • Top with Italian parsley. Serve.

Notes

 
  • You can store leftovers by allowing the chicken and potatoes to cool to room temperature, then refrigerate them in an airtight container.  They will be good in the fridge for 3-4 days.  
  • Reheat by adding the chicken and potatoes to a microwave-safe dish, add a splash of water or broth, cover and heat on high for 2-3 minutes (or until warmed through).  
  • To reheat in the oven, place the chicken and potatoes in an oven-safe pan (such as a dutch oven or braiser) and bake at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 20 minutes (covered).
