So it has been a while since we had chicken (even before the blog) so I thought what a good night for it. So I got to looking for a good chicken recipe and I came across a fabulous one that was not only quick and easy to make but sooo yummy as well. The kids were loving the pan sauce and kept asking for more to "dip" in, lol.
So here is the recipe:
4 small boneless skinless chicken breast halves (I used 6 for my family size)
2 Tbsp. flour---I just eye balled this
1 Tbsp.oil
3/4 cup fat-free reduced-sodium chicken broth
4 oz. (1/2 of 8-oz. pkg.) plain cream cheese, cubed---I didn't cube mine
1 Tbsp. chopped fresh parsley
Coat your chicken breast in the flour and than fry in a hot pan with EVOO, when your chicken is cooked, about 6 mins a side, remove them from the pan and add your broth and give the pan a scrape (de-glaze it) let it simmer for a min and than add your cream cheese. Whisk that until the sauce becomes creamy and the CC is no longer chunky. ( at this point I added some rosemary and some thyme to my sauce) Now put your chicken back into your pan, turn it to coat and let it simmer for 2-3 mins. Remove you chicken from the pan, plate it and pour your sauce from the pan over the chicken--I just put mine in a gravy bowl to pour once served.
I forgot to add the parsley
I Served mine with rice and a veg mix (corn and peas)
**TIPS**
I would add some salt and pepper to your flour to season the chicken a bit, but other than that it was wonderful
