Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Chicken breasts
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 3 tablespoons Butter
- 3 pieces Garlic cloves, minced
- 1 teaspoon Red chili flakes
- 1 cup Heavy cream
- 0.5 cup Chicken broth
- 0.5 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped
Instructions
Preheat your grill or grill pan to medium-high heat.
Brush the chicken breasts with olive oil on both sides and season evenly with garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper.
Grill the chicken for about 6-8 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C). Remove from the grill and let rest while you prepare the sauce.
In a medium-sized skillet over medium heat, melt the butter.
Add the minced garlic and cook for 1 minute, stirring frequently, until fragrant.
Stir in the red chili flakes and cook for 30 seconds.
Slowly pour in the heavy cream and chicken broth, stirring to combine.
Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer, then stir in the grated Parmesan cheese until melted and the sauce thickens slightly, about 3-4 minutes.
Taste the sauce and adjust the seasoning if necessary.
Plate the grilled chicken and spoon the chili cream sauce generously over the top.
Garnish with freshly chopped parsley and serve immediately.
