Ingredients
  

  • 2 large chicken breasts cut in half lengthwise
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 tbsp butter divided

Instructions
 

  • Cut the chicken in half lengthwise so you have 4 smaller cutlets. Sprinkle them with some salt & pepper and coat them in the flour. 
  • How to make creamy garlic chicken
    I cut the chicken breasts in half lengthwise like I do with similar recipes (such as my creamy Tuscan garlic chicken, this creamy bacon chicken, and my creamy Dijon rosemary chicken) – in my opinion it's easier than pounding the chicken breasts or leaving them whole. The chicken cooks faster and more evenly, so it remains tender and melt-in-your-mouth.
  • You dredge the chicken pieces in flour and pan-fry them in butter and oil until they're golden, then take them out of the pan.
    The garlic cloves are then lightly browned and then you add the sauce ingredients.
    The chicken goes back in the pan for a few more minutes to finish cooking, and the sauce thickens up. Perfection. And easy too!

Notes

This creamy garlic chicken is ready in about 30 minutes. In my opinion, it’s good enough to serve company, but it’s also one of those dishes that work for a quick weeknight dinner.
