Ingredients:
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour (or almond flour for a keto-friendly option)
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 cup chicken broth
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 tsp dried thyme
- 1 tsp dried rosemary
- 1 tsp dried oregano
- 1 cup sliced mushrooms
- Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions:
- Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper on both sides.
- Place the all-purpose flour (or almond flour) on a plate and dredge each chicken breast in the flour, shaking off any excess.
- In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat.
- Add the chicken breasts to the skillet and cook for about 4-5 minutes per side or until they are golden brown and cooked through. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set it aside.
- In the same skillet, add minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until it becomes fragrant.
- Lower the heat to medium and pour in the chicken broth. Use a spatula to scrape any browned bits from the bottom of the skillet for added flavor.
- Stir in the heavy cream, grated Parmesan cheese, dried thyme, dried rosemary, and dried oregano. Cook the sauce for 2-3 minutes or until it thickens slightly.
- Add the sliced mushrooms to the sauce and let them simmer for an additional 3-4 minutes until they become tender.
- Return the cooked chicken breasts to the skillet, coating them with the creamy garlic parmesan sauce.
- Continue cooking for another 1-2 minutes, allowing the chicken to absorb the flavors of the sauce.
- Optional: For an elegant touch, garnish with freshly chopped parsley.
Note: For a keto-friendly version, you can use almond flour to dredge the chicken breasts and heavy cream to create the creamy sauce.
