# Instructions:
01 -
In a bowl, toss chicken slices with olive oil, minced garlic, lemon juice, oregano, thyme, salt, and pepper. Let marinate for at least 15 minutes.
02 -
Preheat oven to 220°C. In a bowl, toss potato cubes with olive oil, minced garlic, rosemary, salt, and pepper. Spread potatoes in a single layer on a baking sheet and roast for 20–25 minutes, or until golden brown and tender, flipping halfway through.
03 -
Heat a grill pan or skillet over medium-high heat. Grill or sauté the marinated chicken slices for 3-4 minutes per side, or until cooked through and lightly browned. Set aside.
04 -
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add chopped mushrooms and minced garlic. Cook until mushrooms are softened and have released their liquid, about 5-7 minutes. Transfer the cooked mushroom mixture to a food processor or blender. Add basil leaves, Parmesan cheese, heavy cream, and lemon juice. Blend until smooth. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

Arrange the roasted garlic rosemary potatoes on plates or in a bowl. Top with the Greek herb-marinated chicken slices. Drizzle generously with the creamy mushroom-garlic basil pesto. Serve immediately.
# Notes:
01 -
Allow the chicken to marinate for a minimum of 15 minutes to enhance flavor.
02 -
Flipping the potatoes halfway through roasting ensures even browning.
