Ingredients
Scale
- For the Garlic Butter Chicken:
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken thighs
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tsp dried thyme
- 1 tsp paprika
- Salt and pepper to taste
- For the Ribeye:
- 2 ribeye steaks (about 10 oz each)
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 2 tbsp butter
- 2 cloves garlic, smashed
- Fresh rosemary or thyme sprigs
- Salt and pepper
- For the Creamy Parmesan Mash:
- 2 lbs potatoes, peeled and cubed
- 4 tbsp butter
- 1/2 cup heavy cream (warm)
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Prepare the chicken: In a bowl, mix melted butter, garlic, olive oil, thyme, paprika, salt, and pepper. Place chicken in a slow cooker and pour the mixture over it. Cook on low for 4–5 hours or until tender.
- Prepare the ribeye: Season steaks with salt and pepper. Heat olive oil in a hot skillet over medium-high heat. Sear steaks for 2–3 minutes per side. Add butter, smashed garlic, and herbs; baste for another 1–2 minutes. Rest before slicing.
- Prepare the mash: Boil potatoes in salted water until fork-tender. Drain and mash with butter, warm cream, and Parmesan until smooth. Season to taste.
- To serve: Plate creamy mash, top with slow-cooked chicken and sliced ribeye. Spoon over garlic butter from the cooker or skillet. Garnish with fresh herbs if desired.
Notes
- Use Yukon Gold potatoes for extra creamy mash.
- Adjust garlic to preference – roasted garlic can be used for a sweeter flavor.
- Rest steaks before slicing to retain juices.
- Substitute chicken breasts if preferred, but monitor doneness to avoid drying out.
