Chicken With Roasted Garlic & Parmesan Sauce image

Positively scrumptious meal, perfect served with mashed potatoes or pasta. The sauce is plate-licking-good! It's also a healthier alternative to alfredo sauces which use butter and cream.

Time 30m

Yield 2-3 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

7 -10 garlic cloves
3 boneless skinless chicken breasts
1/3 cup white wine
1 cup chicken stock
2 teaspoons parsley
1 tablespoon garlic powder
1/2 cup milk
4 ounces cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup parmesan cheese
pepper, to taste

Steps:

  • Coat garlic gloves with olive oil and wrap tightly in foil, roast in a 450 degree oven for 15-20 minutes or until soft.
  • Remove from foil and mash well.
  • Brown chicken breasts in olive oil, not cooking the chicken through at this point but adding color. Remove when finished and set into a casserole dish.
  • Deglaze the sauce pan with the white wine and let boil. Add chicken stock, parsley and roasted garlic. Allow to simmer.
  • Add milk and cream cheese, stirring until it is incorporated, and then add the parmesan cheese. Whisk until smooth.
  • Add black pepper to taste and salt if needed. (the broth and cheese are salty so you probably won't need any).
  • Pour over the chicken and bake uncovered in a 350 degree oven for 25-35 minutes or until chicken is cooked through.
  • Serve sauce over mashed potatoes or pasta. If it is too thin, return to a saucepan and mix together one tablespoon water and one tablespoon of corn starch and whisk into sauce when simmering.
