For the sauce:

|
- Season the chicken breasts with garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
- In a clean bowl, mix the parmesan cheese and flour.
- Dredge chicken breast in the flour mixture and then shake off excess.
- Heat 2 tbsp of oil and 1 tbsp of butter in a large pan over medium to high heat.
- To coat evenly, swirl the pan. Fry the chicken breasts for about 4-5 minutes or until they turn golden on each side.
- Transfer to a plate and keep them aside.
- Sauté the onion in the pan in the remaining oil until softened by reducing the heat to medium.
- Smash six whole garlic cloves.
- Sauté 6 smashed garlic cloves for about 2-3 minutes until they turn fragrant.
- Add in the chicken broth and let it simmer until reduced to half, roughly 5 minutes.
- Pour in the cream and reduce heat to medium-low. Let the sauce simmer gently for about 2-3 minutes to blend all of the flavours.
- It is time to add parmesan cheese. Stir occasionally for about 2-3 minutes until the cheese melts.
- Season with pepper and salt to your taste.
- Add the chicken breasts back into the pan. Let this simmer for another 2-3 minutes for the chicken breast to soak up all the delicious flavours.
- Garnish with a bit of black cracked pepper and parsley.
