  • Total Time: 40 minutes

Ingredients

– 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
– 1 cup all-purpose flour
– 2 large eggs
– 1 cup breadcrumbs (preferably panko)
– 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
– 1 teaspoon garlic powder
– 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
– ½ teaspoon salt
– ½ teaspoon black pepper
– 2 tablespoons olive oil
– 2 tablespoons butter
– 4 cloves garlic, minced
– 1 cup heavy cream
– Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)


Instructions

Creating Crispy Parmesan Chicken with a Dreamy Garlic Cream Sauce is simple when you follow these steps:

1. Prepare Chicken: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Pat the chicken breasts dry with paper towels.
2. Set Up Breading Station: Place flour, beaten eggs, and a mixture of breadcrumbs, grated Parmesan, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper in three separate shallow bowls.
3. Bread the Chicken: Dredge each chicken breast in flour, dip it into the eggs, and then coat it with the breadcrumb mixture, pressing lightly to ensure it sticks.
4. Cook the Chicken: Heat olive oil in a large oven-safe skillet over medium heat. Add breaded chicken breasts to the skillet and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown. Transfer the skillet to the oven and bake for 15-20 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through.
5. Make the Cream Sauce: While the chicken is baking, melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Sauté the minced garlic for 1-2 minutes, then add heavy cream and bring to a simmer. Cook for 3-4 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly.
6. Combine: Remove the garlic cream sauce from the heat and stir in any remaining grated Parmesan for additional flavor. Add salt and pepper to taste.
7. Serve: Once the chicken is cooked, plate it and generously drizzle with the dreamy garlic cream sauce. Sprinkle with fresh parsley for garnish.
