What Most People Don’t Know About Making CREAMY GARLIC CHICKEN

  • Let the Flour Settle: Letting the floured chicken sit for 5–10 minutes before searing helps the coating stick better, giving you a crispier and more even browning.
  • Garlic Balance is Key: Using just smashed fresh garlic (and skipping garlic powder) keeps the flavor fresh and bold without going overboard.
  • Same Pan = Maximum Flavor: Cooking everything in the same skillet keeps the browned bits (fond), adding depth and richness to the final sauce.

Ingredients

  • 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 1.3 lbs total)
  • 1 tsp Bald Buck Seasoning
  • 1/2 tsp Italian seasoning
  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 Tbsp olive oil
  • 2 Tbsp butter, divided
  • 4–5 garlic cloves, peeled and smashed
  • 1 cup chicken broth
  • 3/4 cup heavy cream
  • Chopped fresh parsley for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  • Butterfly and Prep the Chicken: Slice each chicken breast horizontally to make two thinner cutlets. Pat dry with paper towels.
  • Season and Flour: Sprinkle both sides with Bald Buck Seasoning and Italian seasoning. Lightly coat each piece in flour, then let them rest on a plate for 5–10 minutes.
  • Sear the Chicken: Heat olive oil and 1 Tbsp of butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add chicken and cook 4 minutes per side, or until golden and cooked through. Remove and set aside.
  • Sauté the Garlic: In the same pan, add remaining 1 Tbsp butter and smashed garlic. Cook over medium-low for about 3 minutes, stirring often, until lightly golden and fragrant.
  • Make the Sauce: Add chicken broth and heavy cream. Stir to combine, scraping up browned bits from the bottom. Let it simmer 8–10 minutes, until reduced by half and slightly thickened.
  • Finish and Serve: Return the chicken to the pan and spoon sauce over the top. Simmer another 2–3 minutes to warm through. Garnish with parsley if you like.
  • Serve: Serve it over mashed potatoes, pasta, or rice to catch all that creamy sauce. It’s rich, flavorful, and perfectly garlicky without being overwhelming.

Enjoy Your Creamy Garlic Chicken Dinner!
