If you want a weeknight dinner that feels fancy without doing much, this creamy garlic Parmesan chicken is it. The sauce alone could win an award — it’s rich, garlicky, and perfect over pasta or mashed potatoes. Ingredients 2 large chicken breasts (halved into 4 cutlets) Salt & pepper 1 tsp paprika 2 tbsp olive oil 4 cloves garlic (minced) 1 cup heavy cream ½ cup chicken broth ½ cup grated Parmesan 1 tsp Italian seasoning Optional: spinach or mushrooms Steps Season chicken with salt, pepper, and paprika. Heat oil in a skillet, cook chicken 4–5 minutes per side until golden; remove. In the same pan, add garlic and sauté 30 seconds (don’t burn!). Pour in cream + broth. Stir in Parmesan and Italian seasoning until smooth. Add optional spinach/mushrooms and simmer 2 minutes. Return chicken and cook another 5 minutes until sauce thickens. Serve warm with pasta, rice, or crusty bread. Comfort in a pan.
