Ingredients

• 1 lb Chicken breast
• 3 cups Broccoli florets
• 2 tbsp Olive oil
• 2 Garlic cloves, minced
• 1 cup Heavy cream
• 1 cup Grated Parmesan cheese
• 4 oz Cream cheese
• 2 tbsp Unsalted butter
• 1 tsp Salt
• 0.5 tsp Black pepper
• 1 tsp Italian seasoning
• 2 tbsp Fresh parsley, chopped (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Season the chicken breasts with salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning on both sides.

Step 2

In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the chicken breasts and cook for 4-5 minutes per side, or until fully cooked (internal temperature should reach 165°F). Remove from the skillet and set aside to rest for a few minutes.

Step 3

In the same skillet, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Toss in the broccoli florets and sauté for 3-4 minutes until tender-crisp. Remove and set aside.

Step 4

Reduce the heat to medium and melt the butter in the skillet. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 1 minute until fragrant.

Step 5

Pour in the heavy cream and add the cream cheese. Stir continuously until the cream cheese melts and the sauce begins to thicken.

Step 6

Stir in the grated Parmesan cheese and continue to cook for 2-3 minutes until the sauce is smooth and creamy. Season with additional salt and pepper to taste, if needed.

Step 7

Slice the cooked chicken breasts into bite-sized pieces and return them to the skillet along with the sautéed broccoli. Gently toss to coat everything in the Alfredo sauce.

Step 8

Serve hot, garnished with chopped parsley if desired.
