Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 1.5 lbs)
  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 4 cloves fresh garlic, minced
  • 1 cup low-sodium chicken broth
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 2 teaspoons smoked paprika
  • 1 teaspoon seasoning salt
  • Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Cut chicken breasts into bite-sized pieces and season with smoked paprika and seasoning salt.
  2. In a large skillet over medium heat, melt the butter until bubbly. Add chicken pieces and cook until golden brown (about 6-8 minutes).
  3. Once nearly cooked through, add minced garlic and sauté for an additional minute until fragrant.
  4. Pour in chicken broth to deglaze the pan, scraping up any browned bits. Let simmer until slightly reduced (about 3 minutes).
  5. Lower heat and stir in heavy cream; simmer gently until sauce thickens (about 5 minutes).
  6. Sprinkle chopped parsley on top before serving.
