Description
A comforting dish of creamy herb chicken served with fluffy mashed potatoes and sweet honey-glazed carrots, perfect for family dinners.
Ingredients
Scale
- 4 chicken thighs (skin-on)
- Salt and pepper (to taste)
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp dried thyme
- 1 tsp dried rosemary
- 1 tsp dried parsley
- 1 cup cream
- 2 tbsp butter (for potatoes)
- 2 pounds potatoes (diced)
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1/4 cup honey
- 1 pound carrots (sliced)
Instructions
- Season the chicken thighs generously with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and dried herbs.
- Heat a skillet over medium heat, add butter or oil, and cook the chicken until golden and cooked through (about 5-7 minutes on each side).
- While the chicken cooks, boil salted water for the potatoes, add diced potatoes, and cook until tender. Drain and mash with butter and milk until creamy.

Notes
For a dairy-free option, use unsweetened almond milk and vegan butter for the mashed potatoes. Allow chicken to be at room temperature before cooking for best results.
