🍯 Creamy Garlic Parmesan Chicken

Introduction

Creamy Garlic Parmesan Chicken is one of those recipes that feels like a restaurant-quality dish but comes together easily at home. Tender, juicy chicken breasts are simmered in a rich sauce made with garlic, heavy cream, and Parmesan cheese. The flavor is bold yet comforting, making it the kind of dish families request over and over again. My husband is beyond addicted to it—we finish one serving and he’s already asking when I’ll make it again!

Ingredients

For the Chicken

  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp salt
  • ½ tsp black pepper
  • 1 tsp paprika

For the Creamy Garlic Parmesan Sauce

  • 2 tbsp unsalted butter
  • 5 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1 cup chicken broth
  • 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 tsp Italian seasoning
  • ½ tsp crushed red pepper flakes (optional)
  • 2 tbsp chopped fresh parsley

Instructions / Method

  1. Prepare the chicken – Pat chicken breasts dry and season with salt, pepper, and paprika.
  2. Sear the chicken – Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Cook chicken on both sides until golden brown (about 5–6 minutes each side). Remove and set aside.
  3. Make the sauce – In the same pan, melt butter. Add garlic and sauté until fragrant. Stir in chicken broth and heavy cream, scraping up any browned bits from the pan.
  4. Add Parmesan & seasoning – Whisk in Parmesan cheese, Italian seasoning, and red pepper flakes. Let it simmer until thickened.
  5. Combine – Return chicken to the skillet, spooning sauce over the top. Simmer for 5–7 minutes until the chicken is fully cooked through.
  6. Finish & serve – Garnish with fresh parsley and serve hot over pasta, rice, or mashed potatoes.
