Instructions
- 1. Slice the chicken breasts in half horizontally or pound them to an even thickness. Season both sides with salt, black pepper, and Italian seasoning.
- 2. In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chicken and sear until golden brown, about 4 to 5 minutes per side. Remove from skillet and set aside.
- 3. Lower the heat, then add the butter and minced garlic to the pan. Sauté until fragrant, about 30 seconds to 1 minute.
- 4. Pour in the heavy cream, scraping up any brown bits from the skillet. Add Parmesan cheese and stir until the sauce thickens.
- 5. Return the chicken to the skillet and simmer for an additional 2 to 3 minutes, ensuring it is well-coated with the sauce.
