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!

    Samuel Adams Just Dropped Its Fall Beer Lineup — Including a First-Ever Non-Alcoholic Octoberfest

    The new non-alcoholic Octoberfest is worth highlighting for anyone who wants to participate in fall seasonal drinking without the alcohol. Non-alcoholic beers have improved dramatically in quality over the past few years, and Samuel Adams’ commitment to maintaining the “smooth, bold taste and rich caramel malt flavor” of the original makes this a genuinely interesting option. NA beers still contain calories from malt and barley, so they’re not calorie-free — but they’re significantly lower in calories than their alcoholic counterparts and allow you to enjoy the seasonal ritual without the alcohol. Pairing a seasonal NA beer with a hearty fall meal is one of the more satisfying ways to ease into the season.

    Air Fryer Cheese Bites

    These cheese bites provide high-quality protein and calcium from both mozzarella and Parmesan while using the air fryer’s minimal oil cooking method. Parmesan is also naturally lower in lactose than many cheeses, making it more tolerable for those with mild dairy sensitivities.

    Dutch Oven Short Rip Ragu Pappardelle

    Braising short ribs in a Dutch oven renders a significant amount of the intramuscular fat into the cooking liquid during the long cook—skimming the sauce before shredding the meat removes much of that rendered fat while retaining all of the deep, beef-enriched flavor the braise has developed. Short ribs are also an excellent source of protein, iron, and zinc, making this indulgent-tasting dish more nutritionally substantive than it might appear.
