Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pieces Boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 cup Gluten-free chicken broth
- 3 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
- 2 tablespoons Gluten-free all-purpose flour
- 0.5 cup Heavy cream
- 0.5 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped
Instructions
Place the chicken breasts on a cutting board. Season both sides with salt and black pepper.
In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add chicken breasts and sear for about 6 minutes on each side, until golden brown and cooked through. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant.
Lower the heat to medium and add the gluten-free chicken broth to the skillet. Stir to combine, scraping up any bits from the bottom of the skillet.
Sprinkle the gluten-free all-purpose flour over the broth and whisk continuously to prevent lumps from forming. Cook for 2-3 minutes as the sauce begins to thicken.
Slowly stir in the heavy cream and continue to cook for another 2-3 minutes, allowing the sauce to thicken further.
Add the grated Parmesan cheese to the sauce, stirring until completely melted and the sauce is smooth.
Return the cooked chicken breasts to the skillet, coating them in the creamy sauce.
Simmer for about 5 minutes to ensure the chicken is heated through and infused with the creamy sauce.
Garnish with chopped fresh parsley before serving.
