Steps

Read instructions and get ready to cook

1
Prepare the chicken

Season chicken breasts with salt and black pepper on both sides.

2
Cook the chicken

In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add chicken breasts and cook for 5-6 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through. Remove chicken from skillet and set aside.

3
Prepare the garlic

Peel and mince the garlic cloves.

4
Start the sauce

In the same skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.

5
Add flour

Sprinkle flour over the garlic and butter. Stir and cook for 1 minute to remove the raw flour taste.

6
Add liquids

Slowly pour in chicken broth and heavy cream, stirring constantly to prevent lumps from forming.

7
Simmer the sauce

Bring the sauce to a simmer and cook for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it starts to thicken.

8
Add cheese and herbs

Stir in grated Parmesan cheese, chopped fresh parsley, and dried thyme. Cook for another 1-2 minutes until cheese is melted.

9
Return chicken to skillet

Place the cooked chicken breasts back into the skillet with the sauce.

10
Coat and heat through

Spoon the sauce over the chicken and let it simmer for 2-3 minutes to reheat the chicken and allow it to absorb some of the sauce.

11
Garnish and serve

Sprinkle with additional fresh parsley if desired. Serve hot, spooning extra sauce over each chicken breast.
