Whenever I make this, my husband is over the moon; it’s his weakness.

How to Make This Mouthwatering Dish

1. Prepare the Chicken – Start by seasoning the chicken breasts with salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning. Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add the butter. Once melted, add the chicken breasts and cook for about 6-7 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Once done, set the chicken aside and keep warm.
2. Make the Sauce – In the same skillet, add a little more butter if needed, and sauté the minced garlic until fragrant, about 1 minute. Then, pour in the heavy cream and bring it to a gentle simmer.
3. Add the Parmesan – Stir in the grated Parmesan cheese and continue simmering, stirring occasionally, until the sauce thickens and becomes creamy. Add crushed red pepper flakes if you want some heat, and season with salt and pepper to taste.
4. Combine – Return the cooked chicken breasts to the skillet and spoon the sauce over the top. Let it simmer for a few more minutes to allow the chicken to soak up the sauce and flavors.
5. Serve – Garnish with freshly chopped parsley and serve over pasta, rice, or steamed veggies for a complete meal.

Tips for Making This Recipe Even Better

• Use Fresh Garlic – Fresh garlic really makes a difference in the flavor. It’s worth the extra step.
