This is an overview of the recipe’s instructions. The full instructions can be found in the recipe card at the bottom of this post.
Season Chicken: Season the chicken breasts with garlic powder, pepper, and salt.Cook Chicken: Heat 2 Tablespoons of oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. 2 pieces at a time, cook the chicken until golden on each side and cooked to an internal temperature of 165 degrees F (use a meat thermometer to check) , about 3 minutes per side, depending on the thickness of your chicken. Transfer the cooked chicken to a plate and set aside. Wipe the pan clean with a paper towel, add 2 Tablespoons of oil, and cook the remaining 2 pieces of chicken. Transfer the cooked chicken to a plate and set aside. Do not wipe the pan out.Sauté Onion and Garlic: Reduce the stovetop heat to medium-low, add the remaining 2 Tablespoons of oil to the pan, and cook the onion until softened, about 1 minute. Add the minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, about an additional 30 seconds.Prepare Creamy Garlic Sauce: Pour in the chicken stock and, using a wooden spoon, scrape up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan. Allow the mixture to sit and simmer until it reduces slightly, about 3 minutes. Pour in the heavy whipping cream and simmer for about 1 minute. Stir in the Parmesan cheese and allow it to melt.
Return Chicken to Pan and Simmer Sauce: Add the cooked chicken back to the pan and allow it to simmer and thicken the sauce, which should take about 2 minutes.Garnish and Serve: Garnish the dish with parsley and freshly cracked pepper, then serve.
Chicken Breast: Use chicken thighs, but note the cooking time may be slightly different.Garlic Powder: Sub in anywhere from 5-10 garlic cloves. Mince them up and use them in place of garlic powder.Avocado Oil: Substitute olive oil or vegetable oil at a 1:1 ratio.Unsalted Chicken Stock: Salted chicken stock can be used at a 1:1 ratio. However, if using salted chicken stock cut back on the added salt in the recipe. You can also use chicken broth or beef stock or broth.Heavy Whipping Cream: You can use half-and-half at a 1:1 substitution ratio, but note the creamy sauce will be slightly less creamy than the original recipe intended.Grated Parmesan Cheese: Grated Asiago cheese or Pecorino Romano would work best.
Add spinach , sliced mushrooms , sliced red bell peppers , or chopped sun-dried tomatoes for extra flavor and nutrients.
Add a splash of dry white wine for a more complex sauce. Cook it down with the chicken stock before adding the cream.
Stir in cooked crumbled bacon for added flavor and texture.
Sprinkle in red pepper flakes while cooking or as a garnish for some heat.
Add a squeeze of lemon juice to brighten up the flavor of the sauce.
