Parmesan chicken alfredo with mozzarella and garlic

Parmesan Chicken Alfredo with Mozzarella and Garlic is a mouth-watering, creamy, and cheesy dish that’s perfect for a hearty dinner. This recipe combines tender chicken breasts with rich and smooth Alfredo sauce enhanced with Parmesan and Mozzarella cheeses, and a touch of garlic for an extra burst of flavor.

Ingredients:

12 chicken breasts
1420g
1.50 cup heavy whipping cream
180g
3/4 cup grated parmesan cheese
72g
1/2 cup mozzarella cheese
54g
3 tsp garlic powder
9g
1 tbsp dried parsley
1.60g

Instructions:

1. Preheat the Oven:
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
2. Prepare the Chicken:
- Season the chicken breasts with salt, pepper, and 1 teaspoon of garlic powder.
- Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add olive oil.
- Sear the chicken breasts for about 3-4 minutes on each side until they are golden brown. You don't need to cook them all the way through as they will finish cooking in the oven.
3. Prepare the Alfredo Sauce:
- In a medium saucepan, heat the heavy whipping cream over medium heat.
- Add the remaining 2 teaspoons of garlic powder and bring the mixture to a gentle simmer.
- Gradually whisk in the grated Parmesan cheese until the sauce is smooth and has thickened. This should take about 3-5 minutes.
4. Assemble the Dish:
- Lay the seared chicken breasts in a single layer in a baking dish.
- Pour the Alfredo sauce over the chicken breasts, making sure each piece is well covered.
- Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese evenly over the top.
- Finally, sprinkle the dried parsley over the mozzarella.
5. Bake:
- Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the cheese is bubbly and golden brown.
6. Serve:
- Carefully remove the dish from the oven and let it cool slightly before serving.
- You can garnish with a bit more dried parsley or fresh parsley if desired.
7. Enjoy:
- Serve your delicious Parmesan Chicken Alfredo with a side of pasta, steamed vegetables, or a fresh green salad. Enjoy!

Tips:

- Ensure the chicken breasts are of uniform thickness for even cooking. You can pound them lightly if needed.

- For a smoother sauce, fresh Parmesan cheese works better than pre-grated cheese, as it melts more evenly.

- To avoid burning the garlic powder, add it gradually to the sauce and stir continuously.

- If you prefer a thicker sauce, simmer it for a few additional minutes until it reaches your desired consistency.

- Garnish with chopped fresh parsley instead of dried if you want a fresher flavor and a pop of color.

- Serve the dish immediately while it’s hot and creamy for the best taste experience.
