🧄 Garlic Parmesan Chicken Chops with 🧀 Cheesy Scalloped Potatoes

 

Ingredients:

For the Chicken Chops:

4 boneless chicken breasts

1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese

1/4 cup breadcrumbs

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 tsp dried oregano

1 tsp paprika

Salt and pepper, to taste

2 tbsp olive oil

For the Cheesy Scalloped Potatoes:

4 large potatoes, thinly sliced

1 1/2 cups shredded cheddar cheese

1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese

1 cup heavy cream

2 tbsp butter

2 cloves garlic, minced

Salt and pepper, to taste

Fresh parsley for garnish

Instructions:

Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).

In a bowl, combine Parmesan, breadcrumbs, garlic, oregano, paprika, salt, and pepper. Coat the chicken breasts with olive oil, then cover them with the Parmesan mixture.

Place the chicken breasts into a greased baking dish and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until fully cooked and golden.

While the chicken is cooking, prepare the scalloped potatoes: Melt the butter in a saucepan over medium heat, add the minced garlic, and sauté until fragrant. Stir in the cream, shredded cheddar, and Parmesan cheese. Continue stirring until the sauce becomes smooth and creamy.

Layer the thinly sliced potatoes in a separate greased baking dish. Pour the cheese sauce evenly over the potatoes. Cover with foil and bake for 45-50 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender and the cheese sauce is bubbly.

Once the chicken and potatoes are done, garnish both dishes with freshly chopped parsley and serve immediately.
