Preparation Time: 10 minutes
Cooking time: 30 - 45 minutes
Servings: for 4 to 6 persons
Ingredients:
4 boneless, skinless chicken breastsSalt and pepper to taste
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons or butter
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 cup chicken broth, optional
1/2 cup milk
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1 teaspoon dried Italian seasoning (or a mix of dried oregano, thyme, and basil)
Fresh parsley, chopped, for garnish (optional)
Instructions:
1. Season the Chicken:
- Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper on both sides.
2. Sear the Chicken:
- In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the chicken breasts and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side or until they are golden brown and cooked through. The internal temperature should reach 165°F (74°C). Remove the chicken from the skillet and set it aside.
3. Make the Creamy Garlic Sauce:
- In the same skillet, add minced garlic and cook for about 1 minute until fragrant.
- Pour in the chicken broth and bring it to a simmer. Use a wooden spoon to scrape up any browned bits from the bottom of the skillet; this adds flavor to the sauce.
- Add the heavy cream or milk and grated Parmesan cheese. Stir until the cheese is melted and the sauce thickens, which should take about 3-5 minutes.
- Season the sauce with the dried Italian seasoning, the curry powder and additional salt and pepper to taste.
4. Combine and Simmer:
- Return the seared chicken breasts to the skillet, spooning some of the creamy garlic sauce over them.
- Let the chicken simmer in the sauce for a few more minutes, allowing it to absorb the flavors. If the sauce thickens too much, you can add a bit more chicken broth to reach your desired consistency.
5. Serve:
- Garnish with chopped fresh parsley if desired.
This Creamy Garlic Chicken Breast is perfect served over pasta, rice, or with a side of vegetables. It's a rich and flavorful dish that's sure to satisfy your taste buds. Enjoy!
