Ingredients

Scale

For the Chicken:

  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • ½ cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter

For the Creamy Garlic Parmesan Sauce:

  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 cup chicken broth
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • ¾ cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped (plus more for garnish)
  • Salt and black pepper, to taste

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Chicken: Season the chicken breasts with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder on both sides. Dredge each chicken breast in flour, shaking off any excess.
  2. Cook the Chicken: In a large skillet, heat the olive oil and butter over medium-high heat. Once the butter is melted and the oil is hot, add the chicken breasts to the skillet. Cook the chicken for 5-7 minutes on each side, until golden brown and cooked through. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside on a plate.
  3. Prepare the Garlic Parmesan Sauce: In the same skillet, add the minced garlic and cook for about 1 minute, until fragrant. Pour in the chicken broth, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the skillet. Allow the broth to simmer for 2-3 minutes, reducing slightly. Stir in the heavy cream and bring the mixture to a gentle simmer. Add the grated Parmesan cheese and Italian seasoning, stirring until the cheese is melted and the sauce is smooth. Let the sauce simmer for another 2-3 minutes to thicken. Taste and adjust the seasoning with salt and black pepper as needed.
  4. Combine and Serve: Return the cooked chicken breasts to the skillet, spooning the creamy garlic Parmesan sauce over them. Let the chicken simmer in the sauce for 2-3 minutes to warm through and absorb the flavors. Garnish with fresh parsley and serve the Creamy Garlic Parmesan Chicken over pasta, mashed potatoes, or with a side of steamed vegetables.
