Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces chicken breasts
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 teaspoons smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 0.5 cup chicken broth
- 0.5 teaspoon red chili flakes
- 0.5 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon butter
Instructions
Place the chicken breasts on a cutting board and pat them dry with a paper towel. Using a meat mallet, lightly pound the chicken breasts to an even thickness.
In a small bowl, mix together the smoked paprika, cayenne pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper.
Rub the spice mixture evenly over both sides of the chicken breasts.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken breasts and sear for 4-5 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Transfer the chicken to a plate and set aside.
In the same skillet, reduce the heat to medium and add the butter. Once melted, pour in the chicken broth, scraping the bottom of the skillet to release any browned bits.
Stir in the heavy cream, red chili flakes, and Parmesan cheese. Simmer for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sauce thickens slightly.
Return the chicken breasts to the skillet and spoon the sauce over them. Simmer for an additional 5-7 minutes, allowing the chicken to fully absorb the flavors of the sauce.
Add the lemon juice and sprinkle the dish with fresh parsley before serving.
Serve hot with your choice of side dishes, such as rice, mashed potatoes, or steamed vegetables.
