Grilled Chicken with Garlic Parmesan Cream Sauce 🍗🧄🧀
Ingredients:
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions:
1. Begin by marinating the chicken. In a bowl, combine olive oil, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Rub this mixture all over the chicken breasts, ensuring they are well coated. Let the chicken marinate for at least 30 minutes to absorb the flavors.
2. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. If you are using a grill pan, place it over medium heat on the stove.
3. While the grill is heating up, prepare the garlic Parmesan cream sauce. In a medium saucepan, melt a tablespoon of butter over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant but not browned.
4. Reduce the heat to low, then pour in the heavy cream. Stir continuously, allowing it to warm up without boiling. Gradually add the grated Parmesan cheese, mixing until the sauce is smooth and creamy. Season with additional salt and pepper to taste. Remove from heat and set aside.
5. Once the grill is hot, place the marinated chicken breasts on it. Grill for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C) and the chicken is nicely browned and cooked through.
6. Remove the chicken from the grill and let it rest for a few minutes. This helps to keep the juices in the meat.
7. To serve, place the grilled chicken on a plate, drizzle the warm garlic Parmesan cream sauce generously over the top, and sprinkle with chopped fresh parsley for a touch of color and added flavor.
Enjoy your succulent grilled chicken with creamy sauce that will impress your family and friends!
