Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • ½ cup roasted chestnuts, roughly chopped
  • 2 medium Yukon Gold potatoes, cut into ½-inch cubes
  • 8 oz cremini mushrooms, sliced
  • 1 ½ cups heavy cream
  • ¼ cup fresh basil leaves
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tbsp fresh oregano, chopped
  • ½ tsp dried thyme
  • Salt & freshly cracked black pepper to taste
  • 2 tbsp butter
  • 2 tbsp grated Parmesan cheese
  • 2 tbsp grated Parmesan cheese (for pesto)

Instructions

  1. Marinate the chicken slices with olive oil, minced garlic, chopped chestnuts, oregano, thyme, salt, and pepper. Grill the marinated chicken on medium-high heat for about 2-3 minutes per side until cooked through.
  2. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and toss potato cubes with olive oil, chopped sage, minced garlic, salt, and pepper. Roast on a baking sheet for 20-25 minutes until golden brown and crispy.
  3. In a skillet, sauté sliced mushrooms and minced garlic in butter until softened. Stir in heavy cream and grated Parmesan cheese until melted and smooth.
  4. Blend fresh basil leaves with olive oil and Parmesan cheese to create a pesto. Mix it into the Alfredo sauce.
  5. Serve the grilled chicken over the sage-infused potatoes, topped generously with the creamy chestnut mushroom Alfredo sauce.
