Scale
- 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 2 cups broccoli florets
- 1 cup cooked rice
2 tablespoons olive oil - 4 cloves garlic, minced
1 cup heavy cream - 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Sear the chicken: In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Season chicken breasts with salt and pepper, then add them to the skillet. Cook for 5-7 minutes on each side until cooked through. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
- Sauté the garlic: In the same skillet, add minced garlic and sauté until it becomes fragrant, about 1 minute.
- Cook the broccoli: Add the broccoli florets to the skillet and cook until they’re tender, about 3-5 minutes.
- Create the creamy sauce: Reduce the heat to low and stir in the heavy cream and Parmesan cheese. Mix until combined and smooth.
- Combine the chicken: Slice the cooked chicken and return it to the skillet. Stir gently to coat in the creamy sauce.
- Serve it up: Serve the creamy garlic chicken and broccoli over a bed of fluffy rice.
Notes
This dish pairs wonderfully with a green salad or garlic bread. Add a dash of lemon juice for brightness or red pepper flakes for heat.
