Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
Mix together herbs de Provence, garlic powder, salt, pepper, and olive oil.
Pat the chicken thighs dry and completely coat them with the seasoning blend. Set aside. (see notes)
Coat the bottom of a large braiser or baking dish with the melted butter.
Add the potatoes, shallots, garlic, thyme, salt, and pepper on top of the butter.
Whisk the chicken broth and heavy cream together and pour over the veggies.
Place the chicken thighs on top of the potatoes and veggies.
Bake for 50 to 60 minutes or until the chicken is golden brown and the skin is crispy.
Notes
The chicken can be seasoned and cooked right away. But, for more flavor, I suggest seasoning the chicken ahead of time, at least 4 hours but ideally overnight.Store the leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days.
