Scale
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 2 cups baby potatoes, halved

Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

- Combine Ingredients: Return the seared chicken to the skillet, nestling it among the potatoes and sauce.
- Top with Cheese: Sprinkle the remaining cheddar cheese over the top of the chicken and potatoes.
- Transfer to Oven: Place the skillet in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the potatoes are tender.
