Ingredients

• 2 pieces Boneless, skinless chicken breasts
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 cup Gluten-free chicken broth
• 3 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
• 2 tablespoons Gluten-free all-purpose flour
• 0.5 cup Heavy cream
• 0.5 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped

Directions

Step 1

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

Step 2

In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add chicken breasts and sear for about 6 minutes on each side, until golden brown and cooked through. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.

Step 3

In the same skillet, add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant.

Step 4

Lower the heat to medium and add the gluten-free chicken broth to the skillet. Stir to combine, scraping up any bits from the bottom of the skillet.

Step 5

Sprinkle the gluten-free all-purpose flour over the broth and whisk continuously to prevent lumps from forming. Cook for 2-3 minutes as the sauce begins to thicken.

Step 6

Slowly stir in the heavy cream and continue to cook for another 2-3 minutes, allowing the sauce to thicken further.

Step 7

Add the grated Parmesan cheese to the sauce, stirring until completely melted and the sauce is smooth.

Step 8

Return the cooked chicken breasts to the skillet, coating them in the creamy sauce.

Step 9

Simmer for about 5 minutes to ensure the chicken is heated through and infused with the creamy sauce.

Step 10

Garnish with chopped fresh parsley before serving.
