Creamy garlic butter Parmesan chicken is a delicious and flavorful dish that combines juicy chicken with a rich and creamy sauce. Here’s a simple recipe for you to try:
Ingredients:
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 cup chicken broth
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter
- Fresh parsley, chopped, for garnish
Instructions:
- Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper on both sides.
- In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the chicken breasts and cook until browned on both sides and cooked through (about 5-7 minutes per side, depending on thickness). Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
- In the same skillet, add minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant.
- Pour in the chicken broth and scrape any browned bits from the bottom of the pan with a spatula.
- Add heavy cream, Parmesan cheese, oregano, and thyme. Stir well to combine and let the sauce simmer for 2-3 minutes until the cheese is melted and the sauce thickens.
- Reduce the heat to low and add the butter. Stir until the butter is melted and the sauce is smooth.
- Return the cooked chicken to the skillet, coating each piece with the creamy sauce. Simmer for an additional 2-3 minutes to heat the chicken through.
- Garnish with fresh chopped parsley before serving.
- Serve the creamy garlic butter Parmesan chicken over pasta, rice, or with your favorite vegetables.
