Ingredients
Scale
4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
4 tablespoons of unsalted butter
1 cup of heavy cream
1 cup of freshly grated Parmesan cheese
4 cloves of garlic, minced
1 teaspoon of Italian seasoning
Salt and pepper to taste
Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions
Start by patting the chicken breasts dry with paper towels. This crucial step ensures a golden-brown sear. Season both sides with salt and pepper.
In a large skillet, melt 2 tablespoons of butter over medium-high heat. Once the butter is bubbly, add the chicken breasts to the pan. Sear for 5-6 minutes on each side until golden brown.
After the chicken is cooked through, remove it from the skillet and set aside. In the same skillet, add the remaining butter and minced garlic. Sauté for about 1 minute until the garlic is fragrant.
Reduce the heat to medium-low, then pour in the heavy cream. Stir it well before adding the grated Parmesan cheese. Keep stirring until the cheese melts and the sauce thickens. Season with Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper to taste.
Return the chicken to the skillet. Allow it to bask in the sauce for another 2-3 minutes. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley.
