Step 1

Chicken: Season chicken breasts with garlic powder, pepper, and salt.

Step 2

Heat 2 tbsp (30mL) oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. 2 pieces at a time, cook chicken until golden on each side and cooked through, about 3 minutes per side, depending on the thickness of your chicken). Transfer cooked chicken to a plate and set aside. Wipe pan clean with paper towel, add 2 tbsp (30mL) oil, and cook remaining 2 pieces of chicken. Transfer cooked chicken to plate and set aside. Do not wipe pan clean after cooking these.

Step 3

Creamy Garlic Sauce: Reduce heat to medium-low, add remaining 2 tbsp (30mL) oil to pan, and cook onion until softened, about 1 minute. Add minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, about an additional 30 seconds.

Step 4

Pour in chicken stock and, using a wooden spoon, scrape up browned bits. Allow mixture to sit and simmer until it reduces slightly, about 3 minutes. Pour in heavy whipping cream and simmer for about 1 minute. Stir in Parmesan cheese and allow it time to melt.

Step 5

Final Steps: Add cooked chicken back to pan and allow it to simmer to thicken the sauce, about 2 minutes. Garnish with parsley and freshly-cracked pepper. Serve alongside or atop steamed cauliflower rice.
