Creamy Asiago Chicken

Creamy Asiago Chicken

Healthy Fact of the Day

Swap in half-and-half for a lighter version, and go for part-skim Asiago to cut back on fat while keeping bold flavor.

Creamy Asiago Chicken brings bold, cheesy flavor in a comforting, one-skillet dish. Seared chicken simmers in a rich garlic cream sauce with nutty Asiago cheese and Italian herbs. Pair with a smooth Chardonnay or a light-bodied Grenache—each complements the dish’s richness without overpowering the cheesy goodness.

Complete this Italian-inspired meal with Garlic Rosemary Focaccia Muffins that are perfect for soaking up every drop of that luxurious Asiago cream sauce. Add Spinach Mushroom Orzo as a side to bring earthy mushroom flavors and vibrant greens that complement the rich chicken without competing with its bold, cheesy character.

    Ingredients

    • 4 pieces chicken breast

    • 1 tablespoon olive oil

    • 2 cloves garlic, minced

    • 1 cup chicken broth

    • 1 cup heavy cream

    • 1 cup Asiago cheese, grated

    • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning

    • 0.5 teaspoon salt

    • 0.25 teaspoon black pepper

    • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped

    Directions

    • Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Season chicken breasts with salt and pepper, then add them to the skillet and cook until they are golden brown on both sides and cooked through, approximately 5-7 minutes per side. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
    • In the same skillet, add minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 1 minute. Pour in the chicken broth and heavy cream, stirring to combine and scraping up any brown bits from the bottom of the skillet.
    • Bring the mixture to a simmer and add the Asiago cheese and Italian seasoning. Stir continuously until the cheese is melted and the sauce is smooth and thickened.
    • Return the cooked chicken breasts to the skillet, coating them with the creamy cheese sauce. Allow the chicken to simmer in the sauce for an additional 5 minutes to absorb the flavors.
    • Sprinkle freshly chopped parsley over the chicken before serving. Serve hot, garnished with extra grated Asiago cheese if desired.

    Tip of the Day

    “Always let your meat rest before slicing.”

    Whether you're roasting a chicken, grilling steak, or baking pork tenderloin, letting cooked meat rest for 5–10 minutes before slicing allows the juices to redistribute evenly. This simple step keeps your meat juicy and tender, ensuring every bite is flavorful and moist. Bonus: It gives you a moment to plate your sides or garnish for a perfect presentation!
