A quick and easy recipe for creamy and delicious Parmesan chicken that’s perfect for weeknight dinners or entertaining guests.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • Fresh parsley for garnish

Instructions

  1. Generously season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper.
  2. In a skillet over medium heat, warm the olive oil. Once it’s hot, add the chicken to the pan.
  3. Cook the chicken for about 5-7 minutes on each side until it’s golden brown and cooked through. Use a meat thermometer to ensure it reaches 165°F for safety.
  4. Remove the chicken from the skillet and place it on a plate.
  5. In the same skillet, add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant.
  6. Pour in the heavy cream, stirring gently to bring it to a simmer.
  7. Mix in the grated Parmesan cheese and Italian seasoning, allowing the sauce to thicken to your preference.
  8. Return the chicken to the skillet, ensuring it’s well coated in the creamy sauce.
  9. Garnish with fresh parsley before serving.

Notes

For a lighter version, substitute heavy cream with half-and-half or coconut cream for a dairy-free option. Let the chicken rest after cooking for juicier results.
