Ingredients
- 4 thin-cut chicken breasts (see note)
- 4 tablespoons flour
- 4 tablespoons Parmesan Cheese shredded
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon pepper
- ¼ cup olive oil
- 2 tablespoons butter
Creamy Garlic Sauce
- 1 small yellow onion peeled and chopped
- 1 head garlic peeled and clove ends cut off
- 1 ¼ cups chicken broth
- 1 cup heavy cream
- ½ cup Parmesan Cheese grated
- salt and pepper to taste
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley chopped
Instructions
- In a shallow bowl, combine flour, parmesan cheese, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Dredge chicken in flour mixture to coat completely. Shake off any excess.
- Place a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add olive oil and butter.
- Once butter is melted, add chicken to the skillet. Cook for 3-5 minutes on each side until cooked through and golden brown.
- Remove chicken to a plate and set aside.
- To the same skillet add the chopped onion and cook until translucent, about 5-7 minuts.
- Add garlic and saute until soft and fragrant. Add a little chicken broth to deglaze the pan, being sure to scrape up the brown bits on the bottom of the pan.
- Add the remaining broth and heavy cream to the skillet. Cook until simmering and then reduce heat to medium. Stir often until the sauce has thickened.
- Add grated Parmesan cheese to the sauce and stir until melted. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
- Return chicken to the pan along with any resting juices on the plate. Cook for 2 minutes, spooning sauce over the chicken as it cooks.
- Sprinkle with chopped parsley and a little extra Parmesan cheese. Serve warm.
Notes
- You could also buy two regular boneless skinless chicken breasts and cut them in half to make 4 thin breasts.
