Time 35m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 13

4 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 teaspoon dried basil
½ teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon ground black pepper
1 tablespoon butter
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
3 cloves garlic, chopped
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
1 cup heavy whipping cream
½ cup chicken broth
½ cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
2 ounces cream cheese, softened

Steps:

  • Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate.
  • Season chicken breasts with oregano, basil, salt, and black pepper.
  • Cook the chicken breasts on preheated grill until no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, 5 to 6 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
  • Melt butter with vegetable oil in a saucepan over medium heat. Cook and stir garlic in the butter mixture until fragrant, about 2 minutes. Stir flour through the butter mixture; cook and stir until flour is incorporated, about 1 minute more. Pour heavy cream and chicken broth into the saucepan; stir. Continue cooking until the mixture thickens, 3 to 5 minutes. Add Parmesan cheese and cream cheese to the saucepan; cook, stirring occasionally, until the cheese is melted into the sauce, about 5 minutes.
  • Plate the chicken breasts. Spoon sauce over the chicken. Serve extra sauce on the side.

I'm not a huge fan of garlic, but I really enjoyed this dish. The sauce was creamy and flavorful, and the chicken was cooked perfectly.

I didn't have any heavy cream on hand, so I used milk instead. It turned out great! The sauce was still creamy and flavorful, but not as thick.

This dish was a bit too rich for my taste, but the flavors were good. I think I'll try making it again with a lighter cream sauce.
