Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Trim any excess fat from the chicken breasts and cut them into bite-sized pieces.
Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add the olive oil and minced garlic, cooking until fragrant, about 1 minute.
Add the chicken pieces to the skillet and cook until they are lightly browned and cooked through, about 6-8 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.
In a medium bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, heavy cream, grated Parmesan cheese, Italian seasoning, salt, black pepper, and crushed red pepper flakes (if using). Stir until well combined.
In a 9x13-inch baking dish, spread the cooked chicken evenly over the bottom.
Pour the cream cheese mixture over the chicken, spreading it out evenly.
Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese on top, covering the dish completely.
Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the casserole is bubbling and the cheese is melted and golden.
Remove the casserole from the oven and let it rest for 5 minutes.
Garnish with chopped fresh parsley, if desired, before serving.
Serve warm and enjoy your low-carb Italian chicken casserole!
