Ingredients:
- 1 pound of chicken breast (or thighs, depending on preference)
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 2 cloves of garlic, minced
- 1 small onion, chopped
- 1 cup chicken broth
- 1/2 cup heavy cream (or coconut milk for a dairy-free option)
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1/2 teaspoon paprika
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions:
1. Cook the Chicken:
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Season the chicken breasts with a pinch of salt, pepper, paprika, and dried thyme. Once the oil is hot, add the chicken and cook for about 6-7 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set it aside to rest.
2. Prepare the Sauce:
In the same skillet, reduce the heat to medium. Add the chopped onion and cook until it softens, about 3-4 minutes. Add the minced garlic and sauté for an additional 1 minute, or until fragrant. Pour in the chicken broth, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan for extra flavor.
3. Create a Creamy Base:
Once the broth is simmering, add the heavy cream (or coconut milk for a lighter option) and stir well to combine. Let the sauce simmer for about 5-7 minutes, allowing it to thicken slightly and become creamy.
4. Reintroduce the Chicken:
Slice the cooked chicken breasts into strips or bite-sized pieces, and return them to the skillet. Stir everything together, coating the chicken in the creamy sauce. Allow the chicken to heat through for another 3-4 minutes. Adjust the seasoning with more salt, pepper, or thyme as needed.
