Add the chicken pieces to the skillet and cook until browned, about 5-7 minutes per side.

Remove the chicken from the skillet and cover with foil to keep warm.

Leave the juices in the skillet and add 3 tablespoons of butter.

Add minced garlic and diced onion to the skillet; sauté until fragrant.

Add flour to the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes to remove the raw flour taste.

Pour in 1 cup of chicken broth and stir to combine.

Add 1 cup of heavy cream to the skillet and stir well.

Add the diced potatoes to the skillet and stir to combine.

Bring the mixture to a simmer, then lower the heat and cover the skillet with a lid.

Cook for about 20 minutes, checking occasionally to prevent sticking.

Test the potatoes for doneness with a knife or fork.

Once the potatoes are tender, top with freshly grated Parmesan cheese and additional herbs if desired.
