Crispy Parmesan Chicken with a Dreamy Garlic Cream Sauce: An Incredible 5-Step Recipe

  • Total Time: 40 minutes

Ingredients

– 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
– 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
– 1 cup breadcrumbs (preferably Italian-style)
– 2 large eggs
– 4 cloves garlic, minced
– 1 cup heavy cream
– 1 tablespoon olive oil
– 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
– Salt and pepper, to taste
– Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions

Creating the perfect Crispy Parmesan Chicken with a Dreamy Garlic Cream Sauce requires just a few simple steps. Follow along for the best results:

1. Prepare the Chicken: Begin by preheating your oven to 375°F (190°C). Season the chicken breasts with salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning on both sides.

2. Make the Breading: In one bowl, crack the eggs and beat them lightly. In another bowl, mix together the grated Parmesan cheese and breadcrumbs.

3. Coat the Chicken: Dip each seasoned chicken breast into the beaten eggs, ensuring they are coated, and then dredge them into the Parmesan breadcrumb mixture. Ensure each piece is entirely covered for a crispy finish.

4. Cook the Chicken: In a large oven-safe skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Cook the breaded chicken breasts for about 4-5 minutes per side until golden brown. Once browned, transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for an additional 15 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C).

5. Prepare the Garlic Cream Sauce: While the chicken is baking, add minced garlic to the skillet used for the chicken and sauté for about 2 minutes until fragrant. Then, pour in the heavy cream, stirring continuously. Allow this to cook for about 5 minutes, thickening slightly. Once ready, season with salt and pepper to taste.
