Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons avocado oil
  • 2 pounds chicken breast, cut into 2-inch pieces
  • 1/2 teaspoon minced garlic
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried basil
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1 cup grated parmesan cheese
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • Fresh parsley, chopped for garnish

Step 1: Cook the Chicken

Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat.

Add in the avocado oil followed by the chicken pieces.

Season the chicken with your chosen seasonings.

Continue to cook, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through.

Use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature; the chicken is ready when it reaches 165°F.

Once done, remove the chicken from the pan and set aside.

Step 2: Prepare the Sauce Base

Reduce the heat to medium and add the heavy whipping cream to the same skillet.

Let the cream cook for a few minutes until it starts to bubble gently.

Step 3: Add the Parmesan Cheese

Stir in your grated Parmesan cheese into the bubbling cream.

Remove the skillet from the heat and whisk continuously until the cheese is completely melted and the sauce is smooth.

Step 4: Combine Chicken with Sauce

Add your cooked chicken back into the skillet.

Stir until the chicken pieces are evenly coated with the creamy Parmesan sauce.

If desired, garnish with fresh parsley for an extra touch of flavor and color.

Step 5: Serve and Enjoy

Serve the chicken with creamy Parmesan sauce hot.

This dish pairs well with pasta, rice, or steamed vegetables.

Enjoy your delicious and easy-to-make meal!
