Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Chicken breasts
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 3 cloves Garlic
- 1 cup Heavy cream
- 1 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
- 1 cup Chicken broth
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped
Instructions
Start by seasoning the chicken breasts with salt and black pepper on both sides.
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Add the chicken breasts to the skillet and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil and the butter. Allow the butter to melt before adding the minced garlic.
Sauté the garlic for about 1 minute or until fragrant and soft.
Pour in the chicken broth, scraping any brown bits from the bottom of the pan. Bring the broth to a gentle simmer.
Reduce the heat to low and stir in the heavy cream. Allow the mixture to simmer for another 2-3 minutes.
Add the grated Parmesan cheese to the skillet, stirring continuously until the cheese melts and the sauce thickens.
Return the cooked chicken breasts to the skillet, coating them well with the white sauce. Simmer for an additional 5 minutes.
Garnish the chicken with chopped fresh parsley before serving.
Serve the Keto Chicken in White Sauce hot, enjoying the rich and creamy goodness of a low-carb meal.
