Creamy Garlic Chicken with Grilled Vegetables Recipe
Ingredients:
- For the Chicken:
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 cup chicken broth
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
- For the Vegetables:
- 1 bunch asparagus, ends trimmed
- 4 medium tomatoes, halved
- Olive oil
- Salt and pepper, to taste
Equipment:
- Skillet
- Grill pan or outdoor grill
Instructions:
- Prepare the Chicken:
- Season chicken breasts with salt and pepper on both sides.
- Heat olive oil and butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add chicken breasts and cook until golden brown on both sides and cooked through, about 6-8 minutes per side. Remove chicken and set aside.
- Make the Sauce:
- In the same skillet, add minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 1 minute.
- Pour in chicken broth to deglaze the pan, scraping up any browned bits.
- Stir in heavy cream, Italian seasoning, and Parmesan cheese. Let it simmer until the sauce thickens, about 5-7 minutes.
- Return the chicken to the skillet, spooning the sauce over it, and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes to reheat the chicken.
- Grill the Vegetables:
- Preheat a grill pan or outdoor grill over medium-high heat.
- Brush asparagus and tomato halves with olive oil and season with salt and pepper.
- Grill asparagus for about 2-3 minutes per side, until tender-crisp and charred.
- Grill tomatoes, cut side down, for about 2 minutes until they begin to char and soften.
- Serve:
- Plate the creamy garlic chicken and spoon extra sauce over the top. Arrange grilled asparagus and roasted tomatoes around the chicken. Garnish with chopped parsley.
