Irresistibly Creamy One-Pan Parmesan Chicken & Rice Dinner

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 pieces boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 cup long-grain white rice
  • 2 cups chicken broth
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1 small onion (finely chopped)
  • 3 cloves garlic (minced)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • to taste salt
  • to taste pepper
  • for garnish fresh parsley

Instructions

  1. Generously sprinkle salt and pepper on both sides of the chicken breasts.
  2. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the chicken for about 4-5 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through. Remove and set aside.
  3. In the same skillet, add the chopped onion and minced garlic. Cook for 2-3 minutes until fragrant.
  4. Stir in the long-grain white rice, toasting it for about 3 minutes.
  5. Pour in the chicken broth and heavy cream, then bring to a gentle simmer. Scrape up any tasty bits left from the chicken.
  6. Nestle the browned chicken back into the skillet, cover and reduce heat, letting it simmer for 20-25 minutes until the chicken is fully cooked.
  7. Stir in freshly grated Parmesan cheese until it melts into a creamy sauce. Taste and adjust seasoning as desired.
  8. Before serving, sprinkle fresh parsley on top for a burst of color and freshness.
