Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- chicken breast
- olive oil
- garlic
- heavy cream
- Parmesan cheese
- chicken broth
- salt and pepper
- parsley
- cooked pasta
Instructions
Steps
- Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken pieces, season with salt and pepper, and cook until the chicken is golden brown and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes. Remove the chicken from the pan and set aside.
- In the same skillet, reduce the heat to medium and add the minced garlic. Stir constantly for about 1 minute until the garlic is fragrant.
- Pour in the heavy cream and chicken broth, stirring to combine with the garlic. Bring the mixture to a simmer and allow it to thicken slightly, 3-5 minutes. Gradually whisk in the Parmesan cheese until the sauce is smooth and creamy.
- Return the cooked chicken to the skillet, coating each piece with the Alfredo sauce. Stir to combine and let it cook for 2 more minutes.
Notes
Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days. Add a splash of cream or broth when reheating to maintain the sauce's texture.
