How to make creamy chicken in a frying pan
Make this tasty and easy recipe for creamy chicken in a pan today. You should remember that we’re going to start by listing all the ingredients, so before you begin, sort out all the ingredients and then move on to the full recipe.
Ingredients:
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 medium onion, finely chopped
- 3 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1/2 cup chicken broth
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon dried basil
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh parsley, chopped, for garnish
Instructions:
Start by seasoning both sides of the chicken breasts with salt and pepper. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the chicken breasts and cook for about 5-7 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
Tip: Don’t overcrowd the skillet. Cook the chicken in batches if necessary to ensure even browning.
In the same skillet, add the chopped onion and cook until it becomes translucent, about 3 minutes. Add the minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant.
Pour in the chicken broth to deglaze the skillet, scraping up any brown bits from the bottom. This adds incredible flavor to your sauce. Then, add the heavy cream and stir well. Let the mixture simmer for a few minutes to thicken slightly.
Tip: Use a whisk to ensure the cream and broth are well combined for a smooth sauce.
Stir in the grated Parmesan cheese until it melts into the sauce. Add the dried oregano and basil, and season with additional salt and pepper to taste. Allow the sauce to simmer until it reaches your desired consistency.
Return the cooked chicken breasts to the skillet, spooning some of the sauce over the top. Let the chicken simmer in the sauce for a few more minutes to absorb all the flavors.
Finally, garnish with freshly chopped parsley for a burst of color and freshness. Serve your creamy chicken hot, with your favorite sides like rice, pasta, or steamed vegetables.
