        Step-by-Step Instructions<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

        Step 1: Saut\u00e9 the Chicken<\/h4>\n\n\n\n
          \n
        1. Heat the olive oil (or butter) in a large skillet or Dutch oven over medium heat. Season the chicken pieces with salt, pepper, and half of the smoked paprika.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
        2. Add the chicken to the pan and cook until golden brown on all sides, about 5\u20137 minutes. Remove the chicken and set aside.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

          Step 2: Cook the Veggies<\/h4>\n\n\n\n
            \n
          1. In the same pan, add the diced onion and saut\u00e9 for 3\u20134 minutes, until softened. Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional 1 minute, until fragrant.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

            Step 3: Add Potatoes and Broth<\/h4>\n\n\n\n
              \n
            1. Add the cubed potatoes to the pan and stir to coat them in the onion-garlic mixture. Sprinkle with the remaining smoked paprika, dried thyme, salt, and pepper.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
            2. Pour in the chicken broth, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan. Bring the mixture to a simmer.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

              <\/p>\n\n\n\n

              <\/p>\n\n\n\n

              <\/p>\n\n\n\n

              Step 4: Simmer Everything Together<\/h4>\n\n\n\n
                \n
              1. Return the browned chicken to the pan, nestling it into the potatoes and broth. Cover the pan and reduce the heat to medium-low.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
              2. Simmer for 20\u201325 minutes , stirring occasionally, until the potatoes are tender and the chicken is cooked through (internal temperature should reach 165\u00b0F\/75\u00b0C).<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

                Step 5: Finish and Serve<\/h4>\n\n\n\n
                  \n
                1. If desired, stir in a splash of heavy cream during the last 5 minutes of cooking for a richer sauce.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
                2. Taste and adjust seasoning with more salt, pepper, or herbs as needed.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
                3. Serve hot, garnished with fresh parsley if desired.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

                      Tips for Success<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
                        \n
                      • Cut Evenly : Cube the potatoes into uniform sizes to ensure they cook evenly.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
                      • Don\u2019t Overcook the Chicken : Chicken thighs are more forgiving than breasts, so consider using them if you\u2019re worried about dryness.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
                      • Storage : Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat gently on the stovetop or microwave.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
