Ingredients
Scale
1.5 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch cubes
3 tbsp unsalted butter
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 cup heavy cream
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1 tsp dried thyme
1/2 tsp dried oregano
1/4 tsp red pepper flakes (optional, for a touch of heat)
Salt and black pepper, to taste
Chopped fresh parsley, for garnish (optional)
Instructions
Begin by cutting the boneless, skinless chicken breasts into 1-inch cubes.
In a large skillet or sauté pan, melt the butter over medium heat. Once the butter is foaming, add the minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes, stirring constantly, until fragrant and lightly golden.
Add the cubed chicken to the pan with the garlic butter and spread it into a single layer. Allow the chicken to sear undisturbed for 3-4 minutes, or until it develops a nice golden-brown crust. Flip the chicken pieces and continue cooking for an additional 3-4 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and no longer pink in the center.
Reduce the heat to low and pour in the heavy cream. Sprinkle in the Parmesan cheese, dried thyme, dried oregano, and a pinch of red pepper flakes (if using). Stir the mixture continuously until the cheese has melted and the sauce has thickened slightly, about 2-3 minutes.
Taste the creamy garlic sauce and adjust the seasoning with salt and black pepper as needed. Finally, garnish the Creamy Garlic Chicken Bites with freshly chopped parsley, if desired.
