Ingredients
- 1.5 lbs boneless chicken breast or thighs, cubed
- 2 tbsp garlic (minced)
- 2 tbsp butter
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- Salt, pepper, paprika, and parsley to taste

- 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt or light sour cream
- 1 tbsp Dijon mustard

Instructions
- Boil the diced potatoes in salted water until tender, approximately 10–12 minutes. Drain and cool slightly.
- In a bowl, mix Greek yogurt, Dijon mustard, dried herbs, garlic powder, and seasoning. Fold in cooked potatoes until well-coated.
- Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat, add cubed chicken, season well, and cook until golden and fully cooked (6-8 minutes).
- Lower heat, stir in minced garlic and butter, and cook for an additional 1–2 minutes until garlic is fragrant.

Notes
For a creamier texture, use red or Yukon potatoes. Don’t rush cooking the chicken to achieve a golden color.
