Ingredients

Scale
  • Chicken:
    • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
    • 2 tablespoons olive oil
    • 1 cup chicken broth
    • 1 cup heavy cream
    • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
    • 1 tablespoon minced garlic (about 3 cloves)
    • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
    • 1 teaspoon dried basil
    • Salt and pepper to taste
    • Fresh parsley for garnish
  • Garlic Cream Sauce:

    • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
  • Season chicken breasts with salt and pepper.

  • In the same skillet, add chicken broth, heavy cream, Parmesan cheese, minced garlic, thyme, and basil.
  • Bring to a simmer and cook until the sauce thickens slightly, about 5-7 minutes.
  • Return chicken to the skillet and spoon the sauce over the top.
  • Simmer for an additional 3-5 minutes until chicken is heated through.
  • For the garlic cream sauce, melt butter in a separate saucepan.
  • Add minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 1 minute.
  • Stir in heavy cream, Parmesan cheese, and Italian herbs.
  • Cook until sauce thickens, about 5 minutes.
  • Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Serve chicken with the garlic cream sauce poured over the top.
  • Garnish with fresh parsley.

Notes

  • Pair with pasta, rice, or steamed vegetables for a complete meal.
  • Adjust the thickness of the sauce by adding more or less chicken broth.
