Description
A delicious and hearty dish featuring tender chicken fillets smothered in a spicy, creamy garlic parmesan sauce, served with crispy French fries.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 boneless, skinless chicken fillets (about 200g each)
- 1 cup heavy cream (240ml)
- 1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese (50g)
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tsp red pepper flakes (adjust to taste)
- 1 tbsp butter (15g)
- 1 tbsp olive oil (15ml)
- Salt and black pepper to taste
- 2 cups French fries (200g)
- 1 tbsp chopped parsley for garnish
Instructions
- Season the chicken fillets with salt and black pepper on both sides.
- Heat olive oil in a pan over medium heat. Cook the chicken for 5-6 minutes per side until golden and cooked through. Remove and set aside.
- In the same pan, melt butter and sauté garlic until fragrant (about 30 seconds).
- Add heavy cream, parmesan cheese, and red pepper flakes. Stir until the sauce thickens (about 3-4 minutes).
- Return the chicken to the pan and coat it with the sauce. Simmer for 2 minutes.
- Meanwhile, cook the French fries according to package instructions until crispy.
- Serve the chicken with the sauce poured over, alongside the French fries. Garnish with chopped parsley.
Notes
- Adjust the spice level by reducing or increasing red pepper flakes.
- For a lighter version, replace heavy cream with half-and-half.
- Freshly grated parmesan works best for the creamiest texture.
