Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Slice the chicken breasts in half horizontally to create four evenly sized pieces. Season both sides with salt and black pepper.
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken pieces and sear them for about 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown. Remove the chicken and set it aside.
While the chicken is cooking, cut the cauliflower into florets and mince the garlic cloves.
In the same skillet, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil and the butter. Once melted, add the minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
Add the cauliflower florets to the skillet, sautéing them for 5-7 minutes until they start to soften.
Pour in the chicken broth and heavy cream, then bring the mixture to a simmer. Stir in the Parmesan cheese until it melts and the sauce begins to thicken.
Return the chicken to the skillet, nestling it into the cauliflower and sauce. Spoon some sauce over the top of the chicken.
Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the cauliflower is tender.
Garnish with chopped fresh parsley before serving. Enjoy your Keto Cauliflower Chicken hot.
