This dish is so delicious
Preparation Time: 10 minutes
Cooking Time: 20 minutes
Servings: 4 servings
Ingredients:
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 cup chicken broth
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- Fresh chopped parsley for garnish (optional)
Instructions:
- Prepare the Chicken: Season the chicken breasts on both sides with salt and pepper.
- Cook the Chicken: In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the seasoned chicken breasts to the skillet and cook for 6-7 minutes per side, or until they are golden brown and cooked through. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set it aside on a plate.
- Make the Creamy Sauce: In the same skillet, add the minced garlic and cook for about 1 minute, or until fragrant. Be careful not to burn the garlic. Pour in the chicken broth and scrape up any browned bits from the bottom of the skillet.
- Add Cream and Cheese: Reduce the heat to medium-low. Stir in the heavy cream, grated Parmesan cheese, and Italian seasoning. Cook for 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sauce thickens slightly.
- Return Chicken to Skillet: Return the cooked chicken breasts to the skillet, turning them in the sauce to coat evenly. Let them simmer in the sauce for another 2-3 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together.
- Serve: Once the chicken is heated through and the sauce is creamy, remove the skillet from the heat. Garnish with fresh chopped parsley, if desired.
- Enjoy: Serve the Creamy Garlic Parmesan Chicken hot, with your favorite side dishes such as pasta, rice, or vegetables.
