Ingredients:

• 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 tablespoon butter
• 1 onion, finely sliced
• 4 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning or a mix of rosemary, thyme, and oregano
• Salt and pepper, to taste
• 1/2 cup chicken broth
• 1/2 cup heavy cream or cream cheese
• 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese
• Optional: spinach, sun-dried tomatoes, or mushrooms for added depth

👩‍🍳 How to Make It

Step 1: Sear the Chicken

Season the chicken with salt, pepper, and herbs. Sear it in a hot skillet with olive oil until golden on both sides—about 4 minutes per side. Remove and set aside.

Step 2: Build the Aroma

In the same pan, add butter, onions, and garlic. Let them sauté until soft and fragrant—this is when your house starts to smell incredible.

Step 3: Add the Creamy Base

Pour in the broth, stir in cream and Parmesan, and let it all simmer together to form a silky, flavorful sauce.

Step 4: Bake to Perfection

Transfer the sauce and chicken into a baking dish. Bake at 375°F (190°C) for 20–25 minutes, until the chicken is fully cooked and the top is lightly golden and bubbling.
