Ingredients

  • 4 pieces boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper
  • 4 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 3 cloves garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 cup dry white wine
  • 1 cup chicken broth
  • 0.75 cup heavy cream
  • 0.33 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped

Directions

Step 1

Place the chicken breasts on a cutting board and season both sides with salt and black pepper.

Step 2

Dredge each chicken breast in flour, ensuring they are evenly coated. Shake off any excess flour.

Step 3

Heat the olive oil and 1 tablespoon of butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat.

Step 4

Sear the chicken breasts for 4 to 5 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through. Remove from the skillet and set aside on a plate.

Step 5

Reduce heat to medium. Add the remaining 1 tablespoon of butter to the skillet, followed by the minced garlic. Sauté for about 30 seconds or until fragrant.

Step 6

Pour in the white wine to deglaze the skillet, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom with a wooden spoon. Let it simmer for 2 to 3 minutes to reduce slightly.

Step 7

Add the chicken broth and bring the mixture back to a simmer. Let it cook for another 2 to 3 minutes to enhance the flavor.

Step 8

Lower the heat to medium-low. Stir in the heavy cream and grated Parmesan cheese, whisking until the cheese has melted and the sauce is smooth.

Step 9

Return the chicken breasts to the skillet, spooning the sauce over the chicken. Let them simmer in the sauce for about 5 minutes to warm through.

Step 10

Sprinkle fresh parsley on top before serving. Pair with rice, pasta, or a side of sautéed vegetables for a complete meal.
