Step 1: Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F).
Step 2: In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and minced garlic, sautéing until softened and fragrant.
Step 3: Add the diced chicken to the skillet. Cook until lightly browned, then season with salt and pepper to taste.
Step 4: In a large baking dish, layer half of the sliced potatoes evenly on the bottom.
Step 5: Spread the chicken mixture over the potatoes, followed by the remaining potato slices on top.
Step 6: In a bowl, mix the heavy cream and chicken broth together. Pour this mixture evenly over the layered ingredients in the baking dish.
Step 7: Sprinkle the grated cheese on top, making sure to cover everything nicely.
Step 8: Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 45 minutes.
Step 9: After 45 minutes, remove the foil and bake for an additional 15 minutes, or until the top is golden and the potatoes are tender.
Step 10: Garnish with fresh herbs before serving.
