🛒 Ingredients (Check Off As You Measure)

• 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 1.5 lbs total)
• 1 tsp salt
• 1/2 tsp black pepper
• 1 tsp garlic powder
• 2 tbsp olive oil
• 3 tbsp unsalted butter
• 5 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 cup heavy cream
• 1/2 cup chicken broth
• 1 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
• 1/2 tsp dried Italian seasoning
• 2 tbsp chopped fresh parsley for garnish

🍳 Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Season chicken breasts on both sides with salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat and sear chicken for 5-6 minutes per side until golden and cooked through (165°F internal). Remove chicken to a plate and set aside.
2. In the same skillet, reduce heat to medium. Add butter and let it melt, then add minced garlic and sauté for 1 minute until fragrant, scraping up any browned bits from the pan.
3. Pour in heavy cream and chicken broth, stirring constantly. Bring to a gentle simmer and let it cook for 2-3 minutes until slightly thickened.
4. Stir in grated Parmesan cheese and Italian seasoning, whisking until the cheese is fully melted and the sauce is smooth. Taste and adjust seasoning with extra salt and pepper if needed.
5. Return the chicken breasts to the skillet, spooning the sauce over the top. Let everything simmer together for 2-3 minutes to reheat and coat the chicken. Garnish with fresh parsley and serve hot.
