4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
02
2 tablespoons olive oil
03
3 cloves garlic, minced
04
1/2 cup heavy cream

10
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley

Instructions

01
Season the chicken breasts with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder on both sides.

In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the chicken breasts and cook for 6-7 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set it aside.

In the same skillet, add the minced garlic and cook for 1-2 minutes until fragrant, being careful not to burn it.

05
Stir in the Parmesan cheese and continue cooking until the sauce is creamy and smooth.

Return the cooked chicken breasts to the skillet and coat them with the creamy sauce. Simmer for an additional 2-3 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
07
Sprinkle with fresh parsley and serve immediately, optionally with rice or vegetables.
