Instructions
Making Crispy Parmesan Chicken with a Dreamy Garlic Cream Sauce is straightforward when you follow these steps:
1. Prepare Chicken: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper.
2. Prepare Breading: Set up a breading station. In one bowl, place the flour. In a second bowl, beat the eggs. In a third bowl, combine the grated Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, and Italian herbs.
3. Bread Chicken: Dredge each chicken breast in flour, shaking off the excess. Next, dip it into the beaten eggs, and finally coat it with the Parmesan mixture.
4. Cook Chicken: Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the chicken for 3-4 minutes per side until golden brown. Transfer the chicken to a baking dish.
5. Make Cream Sauce: In the same skillet, add minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 1 minute. Pour in the heavy cream and stir, letting it simmer for 2-3 minutes until slightly thickened. Pour the cream sauce over the chicken.
6. Bake: Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 15 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C).
7. Garnish and Serve: Once baked, remove from the oven, garnish with chopped parsley, and serve immediately.
By following these precise steps, you’ll create a dish that’s as delicious as it is easy to make.
