Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it for the biscuits.
Bake the biscuits according to the package instructions and set them aside to cool when done.
While the biscuits bake, season the chicken breasts on both sides with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder.
Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add olive oil. Cook the chicken breasts for 6 to 7 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through. Remove the chicken from the skillet and let it rest before slicing into strips or bite-sized pieces.
In the same skillet, lower the heat to medium and add butter. Once melted, stir in the minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant.
Pour in the chicken broth and heavy cream, stirring to combine. Simmer the sauce for 3 to 5 minutes, allowing it to thicken slightly.
Stir in the grated Parmesan cheese and continue mixing until the cheese has melted completely into the sauce, creating a rich and creamy Alfredo base.
Return the sliced chicken to the skillet, coating it in the Alfredo sauce. Let everything simmer on low for 2 more minutes to meld the flavors.
To serve, split the biscuits in half and spoon the chicken Alfredo mixture generously over each biscuit. Garnish with chopped parsley if desired and serve warm.
