Ingredients

Scale

  • 1½ lbs chicken thighs or breasts

  • 1½ lbs baby potatoes, halved

  • 3 tbsp butter, divided

Instructions

  • Pat chicken dry and season with salt, pepper, and paprika.

  • Heat 1 tbsp butter and olive oil in a large skillet. Sear chicken 4–5 mins per side. Remove and set aside.
