Creamy Garlic Butter Parmesan Chicken
Directions:
1. Start by seasoning those chicken breasts with a sprinkle of salt and pepper. You want them flavorful right from the start!
2. Heat up a large skillet over medium heat and melt 2 tablespoons of butter.
3. Once the butter is sizzling, add the chicken to the pan. Cook them until they’re beautifully golden brown on each side, about 5-7 minutes per side. Once they’re cooked through, remove the chicken and set them aside.
4. In the same skillet, add the remaining butter along with the minced garlic. Sauté for 1-2 minutes until the garlic is fragrant – your kitchen will smell amazing!
5. Now, pour in the heavy cream and bring it to a gentle simmer. Stir in that rich parmesan cheese and sprinkle the Italian seasoning. Keep mixing until the sauce is nice and smooth.
6. It’s time to bring back the chicken! Add it into the skillet and coat each piece in that creamy sauce. Let it cook for an additional minute just to heat through.
7. Finally, don’t forget to garnish with fresh parsley for that pop of color and flavor. Serve it up and watch everyone dig in!
Enjoy this delicious dish that’s sure to be a hit at your dinner table!
