Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Black pepper
- 3 tablespoons All-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 4 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
- 1 cup Dry white wine
- 1 cup Chicken broth
- 1 cup Heavy cream
- 0.5 cup Grated Parmesan cheese
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped
Instructions
Season the chicken breasts on both sides with salt and pepper.
Lightly dredge the chicken in all-purpose flour, shaking off the excess.
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and cook for 4-5 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
Reduce the heat to medium and melt the butter in the same skillet. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant, being careful not to burn it.
Pour in the white wine and let it simmer for about 3 minutes to reduce slightly.
Stir in the chicken broth and heavy cream, and cook for another 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Add the grated Parmesan cheese and stir until it melts into the sauce, creating a creamy consistency.
Return the chicken breasts to the skillet, spooning the sauce over them, and let them simmer in the sauce for 5 minutes to absorb the flavors.
Garnish with fresh chopped parsley and serve hot. Pair with pasta, rice, or a side of steamed vegetables for a complete meal.
