A comforting casserole bake featuring chicken breasts and diced potatoes in a rich garlic-infused cream and cheddar sauce.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 chicken breasts
  • 4 cups diced potatoes (about 4 medium potatoes)
  • 1 cup heavy cream (240 ml)
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • Fresh parsley, for garnish

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Dice the potatoes into bite-sized pieces so they cook evenly.
  2. Pat the chicken breasts dry and season both sides with salt and pepper.
  3. Add 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat, then add the minced garlic and sauté until fragrant—about 30–60 seconds.
  4. Include the chicken breasts to the skillet and cook until both sides are browned (about 3–4 minutes per side).
  5. Combine 1 cup heavy cream and 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese in a mixing bowl and stir until mostly incorporated.
  6. Layer the diced potatoes evenly on the bottom of a baking dish, then place the browned chicken on top.
  7. Pour the cheesy garlic cream mixture over everything, spreading gently.
  8. Cover the baking dish tightly with foil and bake for 30–35 minutes.
  9. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 10 minutes to brown the top.
  10. Let the dish rest for 5 minutes, then sprinkle with fresh parsley and serve warm.

Notes

For a lighter version, swap heavy cream for half-and-half or a lactose-free alternative. For extra flavor, consider adding herbs or spices to taste.
