Ingredients

  • 4 pieces Chicken breasts
  • 2 tablespoons Olive oil
  • 3 cloves Garlic
  • 1 cup Heavy cream
  • 1 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
  • 1 cup Chicken broth
  • 2 tablespoons Butter
  • 0.5 teaspoons Salt
  • 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper
  • 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped

Directions

Step 1

Start by seasoning the chicken breasts with salt and black pepper on both sides.

Step 2

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

Step 3

Add the chicken breasts to the skillet and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.

Step 4

In the same skillet, add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil and the butter. Allow the butter to melt before adding the minced garlic.

Step 5

Sauté the garlic for about 1 minute or until fragrant and soft.

Step 6

Pour in the chicken broth, scraping any brown bits from the bottom of the pan. Bring the broth to a gentle simmer.

Step 7

Reduce the heat to low and stir in the heavy cream. Allow the mixture to simmer for another 2-3 minutes.

Step 8

Add the grated Parmesan cheese to the skillet, stirring continuously until the cheese melts and the sauce thickens.

Step 9

Return the cooked chicken breasts to the skillet, coating them well with the white sauce. Simmer for an additional 5 minutes.

Step 10

Garnish the chicken with chopped fresh parsley before serving.

Step 11

Serve the Keto Chicken in White Sauce hot, enjoying the rich and creamy goodness of a low-carb meal.
