Preparation
  1. Cut the chicken breasts into small strips and season with salt and black pepper.

  3. Peel the potatoes and cut them into rounds. In the same pan, add more oil if necessary and fry the potato rounds until golden brown. Add the chopped onion and minced garlic, cooking until the onion becomes translucent.
Baking
  1. In a bowl, mix the cream and eggs together, seasoning with salt and black pepper to taste.
  2. Once the potatoes are cooked, transfer them to a baking tray. Place the golden brown chicken strips on top and pour the cream mixture over it evenly.
  3. Preheat the oven to 200 degrees Celsius (392 degrees Fahrenheit) and bake for 20 minutes, or until the sauce has set.
  4. Arrange slices of tomato on top of the baked dish, sprinkle with yellow cheese and oregano, and return to the oven for an additional 15 minutes until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

Notes

Serve the Creamy Chicken and Potato Bake warm alongside a fresh green salad. For a delightful touch, consider adding a light vinaigrette dressing or some crusty bread to soak up the remaining creamy sauce. You can replace the chicken with sautéed mushrooms or a mix of your favorite vegetables for a vegetarian option.
