Steps

Read instructions and get ready to cook

1
Preheat the oven

Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).

2
Prepare the ingredients

Rinse the chicken breasts and pat them dry with paper towels. Peel and cut the butternut squash into 1-inch cubes. Mince the garlic cloves. Peel and chop the onion into small pieces.

3
Season the chicken and squash

In a large bowl, toss the cubed butternut squash with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, salt, and black pepper. Arrange the squash on a baking sheet. Season both sides of the chicken breasts with paprika, salt, and black pepper.

4
Roast the chicken and squash

Place the seasoned chicken breasts on top of the squash on the baking sheet. Roast in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the squash is tender.

5
Sauté garlic and onion

While the chicken and squash are roasting, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and chopped onion, and sauté for 3-4 minutes until the onion is translucent and the garlic is fragrant.

6
Add broth, cream, and thyme

Pour the chicken broth and heavy cream into the skillet with the garlic and onion. Add the thyme sprigs and bring the mixture to a simmer. Cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sauce thickens slightly.

7
Add roasted chicken and squash

Remove the chicken and squash from the oven and transfer them to the skillet with the creamy sauce. Stir gently to coat the chicken and squash in the sauce. Simmer for an additional 2-3 minutes to heat through and allow the flavors to meld.

8
Serve and enjoy

Remove the thyme sprigs and discard. Serve the Chicken with Butternut Squash hot, spooning the creamy sauce over the chicken and squash. Enjoy your comforting and delicious meal!
