1 cup heavy cream
1 cup grated Cheddar cheese
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp black pepper
1 tsp dried thyme
1 sheet parchment paper
Instructions
Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C)
Heat olive oil in an oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat
Sear chicken pieces for 3-4 minutes per side until golden; remove to a plate
Add potatoes to skillet, cook 2 minutes; stir in minced garlic, thyme, salt, and pepper
Return chicken to skillet with potatoes
Pour in heavy cream; cover and bake 20 minutes
Uncover, top with Cheddar and Parmesan cheese, and bake 10-15 minutes until bubbly and golden

Notes
Use an oven-safe ceramic or stainless steel skillet for best results
Parchment paper prevents cheese from sticking and allows seamless plating into the pan
For extra garlic flavor, double the garlic quantity if desired
