Instructions
Creating Crispy Parmesan Chicken with Garlic Cream Sauce is straightforward if you follow these easy steps:
1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Prepare Breading: In a shallow bowl, combine the grated Parmesan cheese and breadcrumbs. Mix well.
3. Prepare Chicken: Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper.
4. Coat Chicken: In another shallow bowl, whisk the eggs. Dip each chicken breast into the eggs, then coat with the Parmesan-breadcrumb mixture, pressing firmly to adhere.
5. Sauté Chicken: In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the breaded chicken breasts and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side until golden brown.
6. Transfer to Oven: Once browned, transfer the chicken to the prepared baking sheet and bake for 10-12 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through and reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C).
7. Prepare Sauce: In the same skillet, reduce the heat to low and add the minced garlic. Sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
8. Add Cream: Pour in the heavy cream and stir to combine. Allow the sauce to simmer for 3-5 minutes until slightly thickened.
9. Season Sauce: Season the sauce with salt and pepper to taste. Remove from heat.
10. Serve: Once the chicken is cooked, place it on a serving platter and drizzle the garlic cream sauce over the top. Garnish with fresh parsley.
