🛒 Ingredients

For the Chicken and Sauce:

• 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• Salt and black pepper, to taste
• 3 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 cup heavy cream
• ½ cup chicken broth
• ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
• 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
• 1 teaspoon dried Italian herbs (or a mix of basil, oregano, and thyme)
• 1 tablespoon butter
• Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

For the Roasted Potatoes:

• 1 pound baby potatoes, halved
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• ½ teaspoon smoked paprika
• Salt and pepper, to taste

For the Buttered Green Beans:

• 1 pound fresh green beans, trimmed
• 1 tablespoon butter
• 1 teaspoon lemon juice
• Salt and pepper, to taste

🧑‍🍳 Step-by-Step Method

Step 1: Roast the Potatoes

1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
2. In a large bowl, toss the halved potatoes with olive oil, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper until evenly coated.
3. Spread them on a baking sheet in a single layer.
4. Roast for 25–30 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden and crispy on the outside but tender inside.

Tip: If you like extra crunch, broil them for the last 3 minutes!

Step 2: Prepare the Chicken

1. Pat the chicken breasts dry with paper towels — this helps them sear beautifully.
2. Season both sides generously with salt and black pepper.
3. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
4. Add the chicken and cook for 6–7 minutes per side, or until golden and cooked through. Remove and set aside.
