Creamy Herb-Grilled Chicken Breast
A simple, juicy grilled chicken breast served in a creamy, flavorful sauce made with garlic, cream, and fresh herbs.
Ingredients:
For the Chicken:
4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
2 tbsp olive oil
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp onion powder
1 tsp paprika
1 tsp salt
½ tsp black pepper
1 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
For the Creamy Sauce:
1 cup heavy cream
2 tbsp unsalted butter
2 cloves garlic, minced
½ cup chicken broth
1 tbsp fresh thyme, chopped
1 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
Salt and pepper, to taste
Instructions:
1. Prepare the Chicken:
Preheat your grill or skillet to medium-high heat.
Drizzle the chicken breasts with olive oil and season with garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper.
2. Grill the Chicken:
Grill the chicken breasts for about 6-7 minutes per side, or until they reach an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C). Ensure the chicken is cooked through and juices run clear. Remove from heat and set aside.
3. Make the Creamy Sauce:
In a medium pan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 1 minute until fragrant.
Add the chicken broth and bring to a simmer for 3-4 minutes. Stir in the heavy cream and thyme, and cook for an additional 5 minutes until the sauce thickens.
Season with salt and pepper to taste. Stir in fresh parsley.
4. Serve:
Slice the grilled chicken breasts and pour the creamy sauce over the top. Garnish with more fresh parsley for a pop of color and freshness.
Enjoy!
