Ingredients
Scale
Chicken:
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 cup panko breadcrumbs
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 large eggs, beaten
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 3 tablespoons olive oil (for pan frying)
Creamy Garlic Sauce:
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
- 1 cup chicken broth
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Prepare the Chicken: Flatten the chicken breasts to an even thickness. In one bowl, mix Parmesan, panko, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Place flour in a second bowl and beaten eggs in a third. Dredge chicken in flour, dip in egg, then coat in Parmesan mixture.
- Cook the Chicken: Pan-fry the coated chicken until golden and cooked through.
- Make the Sauce: In the same skillet, melt butter, sauté garlic, stir in flour, then whisk in broth and cream. Simmer until thickened. Stir in Parmesan, season, and return chicken to the pan.
- Serve: Simmer briefly before serving.
Notes
- Serve with mashed potatoes, pasta, or steamed vegetables.
- For a lighter option, use half-and-half instead of heavy cream.
- You can also bake the chicken at 400°F (200°C) for 20–25 minutes.
