GARLIC BUTTER CHEESY CHICKEN 🧄🧀🍗
Juicy, golden chicken breasts topped with melted cheese and smothered in a creamy garlic butter sauce. Easy, cheesy, and absolutely delicious! 🤤✨
🛒 Ingredients
4 chicken breasts
200 g (7 oz) shredded mozzarella cheese
4 garlic cloves, minced
2 tbsp butter
200 ml (about ¾ cup) heavy cream
1 tsp Italian seasoning
Chopped fresh parsley, to taste
Salt and black pepper, to taste
👩🍳 Instructions
Season the chicken breasts with salt, black pepper, and half of the Italian seasoning.
Melt 1 tablespoon of butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Add the chicken and sear well on both sides until beautifully golden. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the remaining butter and minced garlic. Sauté briefly until fragrant, being careful not to burn the garlic.
Pour in the heavy cream and add the remaining Italian seasoning. Stir and simmer over low heat for 2–3 minutes, until creamy.
Return the chicken to the skillet and spoon some of the garlic butter sauce over each piece.
Generously top each chicken breast with shredded mozzarella.
Cover and cook over low heat until the cheese is melted and the chicken is fully cooked. For a golden, bubbly cheese topping, place it in a preheated 425°F (220°C) oven for a few minutes.
Finish with chopped parsley and serve hot with plenty of the creamy garlic butter sauce.
💡 Tip: Avoid overcooking the chicken so it stays tender and juicy. A quick finish in the oven gives the cheese a beautiful golden crust.
