- 2 boneless skinless chicken breasts
- ½ cup all-purpose flour
- ¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon onion powder
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ⅛ teaspoon black pepper
- ½ cup butter
- ¼ cup heavy cream
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ⅛ teaspoon black pepper
Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a shallow dish, combine flour, Parmesan, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper.
Dip each chicken breast into the mixture, pressing to coat both sides evenly.
Place coated chicken on the baking sheet. Bake for 15–20 minutes, or until golden and cooked through (165°F internal temp).
While chicken bakes, melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Add garlic and sauté for 30 seconds. Whisk in cream, salt, and pepper. Simmer 2–3 minutes until thickened.
Plate the chicken and drizzle with warm garlic cream sauce.
