Creamy Garlic Parmesan Baked Chicken

• 总时间: 29 minutes

配料

For the chicken:

4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts

2 tablespoons olive oil

1 teaspoon Italian seasoning

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1/2 teaspoon paprika

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/2 teaspoon black pepper

For the creamy garlic sauce:

2 tablespoons butter

4 cloves garlic, minced

1 cup heavy cream

1/2 cup chicken broth

3/4 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese

1 teaspoon Italian seasoning

1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Salt to taste

For the topping:

1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese

2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley

1/2 teaspoon Italian seasoning

步骤

Preheat the oven to 200°C (400°F). Lightly grease a baking dish.

Pat the chicken breasts dry and season both sides with olive oil, Italian seasoning, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper.

Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the chicken for 3–4 minutes per side until golden brown. Transfer to the prepared baking dish.

In the same skillet, melt the butter. Add the minced garlic and cook for about 30 seconds until fragrant.

Pour in the chicken broth and heavy cream. Stir in the Parmesan, Italian seasoning, black pepper, and a pinch of salt. Simmer for 2–3 minutes until smooth and slightly thickened.

Pour the creamy garlic Parmesan sauce over the chicken.

Sprinkle the mozzarella, Parmesan, and Italian seasoning evenly over the top.

Bake uncovered for 18–25 minutes, depending on the thickness of the chicken, until fully cooked and the cheese is bubbling and golden.

For an extra golden crust, broil for 1–2 minutes at the end, watching carefully.

Garnish with fresh parsley and spoon the creamy sauce over the chicken before serving. Enjoy with mashed potatoes, rice, pasta, or roasted vegetables.
