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!

    Publix Is Recalling Frozen Blueberries in 8 States After 12 Confirmed E. Coli Cases

    Frozen fruits are one of the most nutritious and convenient pantry staples — but this recall is a reminder that frozen doesn’t mean sterile. E. coli and other pathogens can survive freezing, which is why cooking or heating frozen produce doesn’t always eliminate the risk from a contaminated batch. When buying frozen berries, checking the lot code at home and registering your email with the FDA’s recall alert system at fda.gov are simple habits that can help you catch issues like this one before the berries make it into your smoothie. If you’re in one of the eight affected states and shop at Publix, check your freezer today.

    The Herb Garden That Changes How You Cook

    Fresh herbs are among the most nutrient-dense foods available relative to their volume — providing significant concentrations of vitamins, minerals, and phytonutrients in the small quantities typically used in cooking. Fresh parsley, for example, contains more vitamin C per gram than most citrus fruits, along with significant amounts of vitamin K and folate. Fresh basil contains notable amounts of vitamin K, vitamin A, and the antioxidant compound eugenol. The regular addition of fresh herbs to finished dishes — made easier and more frequent by a kitchen herb garden — represents a meaningful nutritional contribution to any meal that includes them.
