Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces chicken breasts
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon onion powder
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 3 cloves garlic cloves, minced
- 1 cup chicken broth
- 0.5 cup heavy cream
- 0.5 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
Instructions
Season the chicken breasts with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder on both sides.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the chicken breasts for 4-5 minutes on each side until golden brown and nearly cooked through. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
Reduce the heat to medium and add the butter to the skillet. Once melted, add the minced garlic and cook for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
Pour the chicken broth into the skillet and scrape the bottom to deglaze, loosening any browned bits. Bring to a simmer.
Stir in the heavy cream and Parmesan cheese. Mix well until the cheese is fully melted and the sauce is smooth.
Return the chicken breasts to the skillet, spooning the sauce over the top. Lower the heat and let the chicken simmer in the sauce for an additional 10 minutes until fully cooked and tender.
Add the lemon juice and sprinkle chopped parsley over the dish. Stir gently to combine.
Serve warm with your choice of side dishes, such as mashed potatoes, rice, or steamed vegetables. Enjoy!
