Instructions

  1. Begin with the potatoes. Wash and slice the baby potatoes into ½ inch thick slices.

  4. Cook the potatoes for about 15-20 minutes, turning occasionally until they are golden brown and crisp.
  5. Remove the potatoes from the skillet and set them aside on a paper towel to absorb any excess oil.
  6. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

  8. In a baking dish, place the halved tomatoes, drizzle with olive oil, and season with salt, garlic, Italian seasoning, red pepper flakes, and black pepper.
  9. Take a whole garlic bulb, slice the top off, and place it in the dish with the tomatoes.
  10. Roast in the oven for about 20 minutes or until the tomatoes are soft.
  11. Pat the chicken dry with paper towels.
  12. Season both sides of the chicken with salt, garlic powder, paprika, oregano, and black pepper.
  13. Heat a drizzle of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
  14. Add the seasoned chicken breasts and cook for about 6-7 minutes on each side.
  15. Remove the chicken from the skillet and let it rest for a few minutes.
  16. Squeeze the roasted garlic into the baking dish with the tomatoes.
  17. Add the heavy cream to the tomato mix and stir well.
  18. Slice the rested chicken breast and add it to the sauce.
  19. Serve immediately alongside the crispy pan-fried potatoes and garnish with chopped fresh basil.
