Ingredients

Scale

    Chicken:

  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts

    • Cream Cheese Sauce:

  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup chicken broth
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh parsley, chopped (optional for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven: Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a baking dish.
  2. Season the chicken: Season the chicken breasts with salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and Italian seasoning.
  3. Sear the chicken: In a skillet over medium heat, sear each chicken breast for 2–3 minutes per side until golden. Remove and set aside.
  4. Make the cream cheese sauce: In the same skillet, whisk together chicken broth and cream cheese until smooth. Stir in Parmesan cheese, adjust seasoning, and simmer for 2–3 minutes until slightly thickened.
  5. Assemble and bake: Place the seared chicken in the prepared baking dish, pour the cream cheese sauce over it, and bake uncovered for 25–30 minutes or until chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F.
  6. Garnish and serve: Garnish with chopped parsley before serving.
