Description

A hearty meal featuring tender chicken in a creamy herb sauce, served with smooth mashed potatoes and sweet glazed carrots.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 boneless, skinless chicken
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 2 tbsp fresh herbs (parsley, thyme, rosemary)
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 large potatoes, peeled and cubed
  • 1/4 cup butter
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • 4 carrots, sliced
  • 2 tbsp brown sugar
  • 1 tbsp butter
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Season chicken with salt and pepper. Heat olive oil in a pan and cook chicken until golden, 5-7 minutes per side. Remove and set aside.
  2. In the same pan, sauté garlic until fragrant. Add herbs and heavy cream, simmer until sauce thickens. Return chicken to the pan and coat with sauce.
  3. Boil potatoes until tender, drain, and mash with butter and milk. Season with salt and pepper.
  4. Boil carrots until tender, drain, and toss with brown sugar and butter until glazed.
  5. Serve chicken with mashed potatoes and glazed carrots.

Notes

  • Use fresh herbs for the best flavor.
  • Adjust cream thickness by simmering longer or adding a splash of milk.
  • For extra richness, stir a spoonful of sour cream into the mashed potatoes.
