Heat olive oil in a large Dutch oven or heavy-bottomed pot over medium-high heat. Season the chicken breasts generously with salt and pepper, then place them skin-side down in the pot. Add the halved Yukon Gold potatoes to the other side of the pot, cut side down. Sear both the chicken and potatoes for about 5–6 minutes until golden brown, then flip and sear for another 3–4 minutes. Remove both from the pot and set aside.

Reduce the heat to medium, add butter to the same pot, and toss in the diced onions and garlic. Pour in the white wine, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom, and let it simmer for 2–3 minutes until reduced.

Stir in the chicken broth, heavy cream, Dijon mustard, Parmesan cheese, and spices. Let the sauce simmer for about 5 minutes until it thickens slightly.

Nestle the seared chicken and potatoes back into the pot. Cover and cook on the stovetop over low heat for 15–20 minutes, or if preferred, transfer to a 350°F (190°C) oven and bake covered until the chicken is fully cooked and the potatoes are tender.

Once done, garnish with fresh parsley and serve straight from the pot. The creamy Dijon sauce is perfect for sopping up with crusty bread or drizzling over the chicken and potatoes.
