- 4 small boneless skinless chicken breasts
- 4 tbsp unsalted butter divided
- 1 lemon sliced thinly
- 1 lb fingerling potatoes or small red potatoes cut in half
- 1 tsp dried thyme
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/4 tsp pepper
- 2 tbsp grated parmesan or romano cheese
In a small bowl, mix the garlic powder, salt, pepper and 1/2 tsp of the thyme; set aside.
Heat a very large (at least 12-inches) skillet over medium-high heat. Add 2 tbs of the butter and remaining 1/2 tsp of the thyme.
Add the potatoes and toss to coat well. Cover and cook for 12 minutes, stirring potatoes 2 times.
Push the potatoes to one side of the pan. Add the remaining 2 tbs of butter and place the chicken alongside the potatoes.
Cook for 5 minutes, uncovered. Turn chicken and sprinkle with salt/thyme mixture. Place sliced lemon on top of the chicken and potatoes.
Cover and cook for 10 minutes, or until chicken is done.
Toss potatoes with the 2 tbs of grated cheese.
