Creating your Garlic Butter Chicken and Potatoes Skillet is a simple process. Just follow these easy steps:

1. Prepare the Chicken: Season the chicken thighs with salt, pepper, paprika, and Italian seasoning, ensuring each piece is coated evenly.

2. Heat the Skillet: In a large skillet over medium heat, melt 1/4 cup of butter. Allow it to bubble slightly.

3. Cook Chicken: Add the seasoned chicken to the skillet. Cook for about 5-7 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.

4. Cook Potatoes: In the same skillet, add the halved baby potatoes. Sauté them in the remaining butter for about 15 minutes, or until they are golden and tender. Add minced garlic during the last 2 minutes of cooking.

5. Combine Everything: Once the potatoes are cooked, return the chicken to the skillet. Stir everything together, allowing the flavors to meld for an additional 2-3 minutes on low heat.

6. Garnish: Remove from heat and sprinkle with freshly chopped parsley for a pop of color and freshness.

7. Serve: Transfer to a serving dish or serve directly from the skillet for a rustic presentation.

With these steps, you will have achieved a dish that is bursting with flavor and ready to be devoured.
