Method
Preparation
Prepare the Chicken
Start by cleaning and cubing the chicken breast into bite-sized pieces. Pat dry with paper towels.
Season the Chicken
In a large bowl, mix the cubed chicken with salt, black pepper, and paprika. Ensure the chicken is well coated with the seasonings.
Cooking
Sauté the Chicken
In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the seasoned chicken and cook until golden brown and cooked through, about 7-10 minutes. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
Prepare the Sauce
In the same skillet, add minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant. Pour in the heavy cream and bring to a simmer. Stir in fresh basil and Parmesan cheese until the cheese is melted and the sauce is smooth.
Combine Chicken and Sauce
Return the cooked chicken to the skillet and stir to coat in the creamy sauce. Let it cook together for another 2-3 minutes to heat through.
Serving
Serve Hot
Serve the creamy chicken hot, garnished with additional fresh basil if desired. Enjoy with pasta, rice, or crusty bread.
