Boneless skinless chicken breasts: Thinly sliced chicken will work best because it will cook evenly and quickly. Olive oil: This is used to cook the chicken in so that the outside gets golden brown.

Serve it with Pasta: You can serve this chicken with so many things! Try your favorite pasta, Instant Pot Mashed Potatoes or Mashed Cauliflower. Add Veggies: Freshly steamed veggies or a light salad are great sides to add freshness to the meal. Protein: Swap out the chicken for salmon or shrimp. The sweet garlic cream sauce will pair perfectly with these meats as well and give you some variety in your proteins. How to know when the chicken is done: To ensure your chicken is cooked throughout, look for the juices to run clear. Also, keep in mind chicken must be cooked to an internal temperature of 165 degrees. So, use a meat thermometer to be sure you have perfectly cooked chicken. Use Fresh Cheese (From a Block): For the most creamy sauce, be sure you’re using freshly grated parmesan cheese. Pre-shredded cheeses are coated with preservatives that keep them from melting completely and will result in grainy sauce. Room Temperature Chicken: Make sure your creamy tuscan garlic chicken is at room temperature before cooking. It will cook more evenly than if it is still cold. Also, dry it completely and season it with salt as it cooks in the oil coated pan.
In the Refrigerator: Let the chicken cool completely. Within 2 hours of cooking, place the chicken in an airtight container and it will last for 3-4 days. In the Freezer: You can freeze this after cooking it for a quick and easy freezer meal! Store it in an airtight container and it will last 6 months. To Reheat: If frozen, let the chicken thaw in the refrigerator overnight. Once thawed, you can heat up the chicken on the stove over medium heat. You need whisk sauce thoroughly to get the sauce back to its original creamy consistency. Add additional chicken broth or cream if your sauce is breaking.
