Ingredients

• 4 pieces boneless, skinless chicken thighs
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
• 1 large, diced red bell pepper
• 1 medium, diced zucchini
• 8 pieces, halved small baby potatoes
• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 3 minced garlic cloves
• 0.75 cup heavy cream
• 0.5 cup chicken broth
• 2 tablespoons, chopped fresh parsley
• 0.25 cup grated Parmesan cheese

Directions

Step 1

Season the chicken thighs with salt, black pepper, and smoked paprika on both sides.

Step 2

Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add 1 tablespoon of olive oil.

Step 3

Sear the chicken thighs for 4-5 minutes per side until golden brown and partially cooked. Remove chicken from the skillet and set aside.

Step 4

In the same skillet, add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil. Toss in the diced red bell pepper, zucchini, and halved baby potatoes. Cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables begin to soften.

Step 5

Push the vegetables to one side of the skillet and add the unsalted butter and minced garlic to the empty side. Sauté the garlic for 30 seconds until fragrant.

Step 6

Pour the heavy cream, chicken broth, and grated Parmesan into the skillet and stir to combine with the garlic and butter. Season the sauce with additional salt and black pepper, if needed.

Step 7

Nestle the chicken thighs back into the skillet, making sure they are partially submerged in the sauce. Reduce the heat to low, cover the skillet, and simmer for 15 minutes until the chicken is fully cooked and the potatoes are tender.

Step 8

Remove from heat and sprinkle the dish with fresh parsley before serving.

Step 9

Serve hot and enjoy Dylan's Fav with crusty bread or a side salad!
