Creamy Garlic Chicken
You're going to love this one pan Creamy Garlic Chicken recipe! The chicken is cooked completely in a skillet and the sauce is made with chicken broth, heavy cream and of course plenty of garlic for optimal flavor.
Servings: 4
Ingredients
- 4 chicken breasts boneless skinless
- 1/4 cup all purpose flour
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 2 tbsp butter
- 6 garlic cloves chopped
- 1/2 cup chicken broth
- 1/4 cup heavy cream
- 1 tbsp coconut aminos or more to taste (I used 2 tablespoons)
- salt and pepper to taste
- fresh parsley for garnish chopped; optional
Instructions
- Pour the flour in a shallow bowl and set aside.
- Lay the chicken on a cutting board, then place a piece of plastic wrap overtop. Use a meat mallet to pound the chicken so all 4 pieces are the same thickness.
- Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Dip each chicken breast into the flour, shaking off any excess, then place it directly into the skillet. Repeat this with all of the chicken breasts, then cook them in the skillet for 2-3 minutes per side; remove chicken from the skillet.
- Next, make the sauce: place the butter in the skillet and allow it to melt, then reduce heat to medium-low, add the garlic and sauté for 1 minutes. Pour in the chicken broth, cream and coconut aminos and stir to combine, then add salt and pepper.
- Place the chicken back in the skillet, place a lid on the skillet and simmer until the chicken is cooked through, about 5 minutes. NOTE: use a meat thermometer to check for doneness, as the final cook time depends on the thickness of your chicken. Enjoy!
