Ingredients

Scale
  • 34 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 46 cloves fresh garlic, minced
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1 cup low-sodium chicken broth
  • 1/2 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
  • 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Chicken: Season chicken breasts with salt and pepper on both sides. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Cook chicken for about 5-7 minutes per side until golden brown and cooked through (internal temperature of at least 165°F/75°C). Remove from skillet and set aside.
  2. Sauté the Garlic: In the same skillet, add more olive oil if necessary. Add minced garlic and sauté for about one minute until fragrant, being careful not to burn it.
  3. Create the Sauce: Pour in chicken broth and bring to a simmer. Stir in heavy cream and let bubble gently for a few minutes until slightly thickened. Scrape up any browned bits from the pan for added flavor.
  4. Add Cheese: Mix in freshly grated Parmesan cheese until melted and smooth. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper if needed.
  5. Combine Everything: Return cooked chicken to the skillet, spooning sauce over each piece. Let simmer together for another minute or two.
  6. Serve It Up: Plate the creamy garlic chicken and drizzle generously with sauce. Pair with pasta or steamed vegetables for a complete meal.
