Garlic Parmesan Chicken Breasts


Ho hum. What to do with the chicken breasts in your fridge? Sure, they are low-calorie and healthy, but are you tired of all your chicken recipes?

Jazz things up a bit tonight by making Garlic Parmesan Chicken Breasts instead. This is a quick, half-hour recipe. No need to marinade or take a lot of prep time.

What do you need?

4-6 boneless chicken breasts
2 heads of garlic - peeled to produce 20-30 whole cloves
3/4 cup chicken broth
1/4 cup prepared Caesar dressing
1/3 cup grated Parmesan cheese (use the real stuff, not from a can)
1/4 t. salt
1/4 t. fresh ground pepper
1/4 t. paprika

Whip it up:

In a large skillet over medium heat, cook chicken and garlic cloves together. Turn after about 3 minutes on each side.

Stir in broth and dressing, then reduce heat to prevent boiling and cover. Turn the chicken again after about 4 minutes.

Remove from heat and sprinkle cheese and spices over the top. Add freshly chopped parsley if desired.

We love having red potatoes and steamed broccoli with this dinner. Add some hot french bread, and dinner is served!

Told you it was fast and easy!
