Main Ingredients

Method

Preparation of Chicken

  1. 1

    Season the Chicken

    Pat the chicken breasts dry with a paper towel. Season both sides with salt and black pepper.

  2. 2

    Cook the Chicken

    In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the chicken breasts and cook for 6-7 minutes per side, or until cooked through and golden brown. Remove from the skillet and set aside.

Making the Sauce

  1. 3

    Create the Roux

    In the same skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Once melted, add all-purpose flour and whisk continuously for about 1 minute until it's lightly golden.

  2. 4

    Add Liquids

    Gradually pour in the chicken broth while whisking to prevent lumps. Once combined, add the heavy cream and continue to whisk until smooth.

  3. 5

    Season the Sauce

    Add Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, dried basil, dried oregano, and red pepper flakes. Stir until the cheese is melted and the sauce is well combined. Let it simmer for 3-4 minutes until it thickens slightly.

Combining and Serving

  1. 6

    Combine Chicken and Sauce

    Return the cooked chicken breasts to the skillet, spooning the sauce over the chicken to coat well. Let it simmer for an additional 2 minutes.

  2. 7

    Add Toppings

    Sprinkle the mozzarella cheese on top of the chicken and cover the skillet until the cheese is melted, about 2-3 minutes.

  3. 8

    Garnish and Serve

    Remove from heat, garnish with fresh parsley, and serve immediately with pasta, rice, or crusty bread.
