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!

    Chick-fil-A Just Added Mac & Cheese to Its Kids’ Meal Menu — And Parents Are Relieved

    Mac and cheese is a kid-friendly comfort food, but pairing it with a more nutritious side makes the meal more balanced overall. The fruit cup or applesauce are the strongest choices from Chick-fil-A’s kids’ meal sides — both add fiber and natural sweetness without the added sodium of the fries or chips. Choosing milk or apple juice over a fountain drink keeps added sugar in check too. For kids who are skeptical of vegetables, sneaking in a request to add fruit on the side is a low-effort way to round out a mac-and-cheese-centered meal without a dinnertime battle.

    The Produce You’re Storing Wrong

    Studies on nutrient degradation in stored produce consistently find that improper storage conditions — particularly exposure to light, heat, and oxygen — accelerate the loss of heat-sensitive vitamins including vitamin C and folate. Leafy greens stored properly in a humid, cold environment retain significantly more of their nutritional value over the same storage period than those stored loosely or in warm conditions. The investment of a minute or two in proper produce storage at the time of purchase translates directly into higher nutritional value in the meals made from it — making storage a nutritional decision as much as a culinary one.

    Chicken Diablo

    Chicken breast is one of the leanest, highest-protein cuts available, and building the sauce from salsa and hot sauce rather than cream or butter keeps this dish remarkably light for how bold and satisfying it tastes. Hot sauce contains capsaicin, which is associated with a temporary metabolism boost and anti-inflammatory properties—so the heat is actually working in your favor.
