Ingredients

Scale

Chicken and Seasoning

  • 4 chicken fillets (about 1.5 lbs or 680 g)
  • Salt to taste
  • Black pepper to taste

Sauce

  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 cup (240 ml) heavy cream
  • 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 teaspoon red pepper flakes (adjust to taste)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil

Garnish and Side

  • Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
  • 1 bag fries (frozen or homemade, about 32 oz or 900 g)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the fries: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). If using frozen fries, cook them according to the package instructions. For homemade fries, spread them evenly on a baking sheet and bake for 30-35 minutes until golden and crispy, turning halfway through cooking.
  2. Cook the chicken fillets: Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Season the chicken fillets with salt and pepper on both sides. Place them in the hot skillet and cook for 6-7 minutes per side, or until the chicken is golden brown and cooked through (internal temperature 165°F or 74°C).
  3. Sauté the garlic: In the same skillet, after removing the chicken, add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant but not browned.
  4. Make the sauce: Pour in 1 cup of heavy cream and bring to a gentle simmer. Stir in 1 cup of grated Parmesan cheese and 1 teaspoon of red pepper flakes. Continue cooking for 2-3 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly and becomes creamy.
  5. Combine chicken and sauce: Return the cooked chicken fillets to the skillet. Spoon the creamy garlic-Parmesan sauce over the chicken and let it simmer together for another 2-3 minutes to meld the flavors.
  6. Serve: Plate the chicken fillets and drizzle with extra sauce. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley and serve alongside the prepared fries for a delicious hearty meal.

Notes

  • Adjust the quantity of red pepper flakes according to your preferred spice level.
  • Use freshly grated Parmesan for best flavor and sauce consistency.
  • Make sure not to overcook the garlic to prevent bitterness.
  • Ensure chicken is cooked to an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) for safety.
  • Serve immediately to enjoy the sauce at its creamiest.
