Ingredients
4 chicken fillets (about 1.5 lbs or 680 g)
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 cup heavy cream
1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1 teaspoon red pepper flakes (adjust to taste)
2 tablespoons olive oil
Salt and pepper, to taste
Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
1 bag of fries (frozen or homemade, about 32 oz or 900 g)
Instructions
Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C) and prepare fries according to package instructions, or bake homemade fries for 30–35 minutes.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Season chicken fillets with salt and pepper.
Cook chicken for 6–7 minutes per side until golden brown and cooked through. Remove and set aside.
In the same skillet, sauté garlic for 1 minute. Add heavy cream and bring to a gentle simmer.
Stir in Parmesan cheese and red pepper flakes. Cook for 2–3 minutes until the sauce slightly thickens.
Return chicken to the skillet and spoon sauce over each fillet. Simmer for another 2–3 minutes.
Serve with fries and garnish with chopped parsley.
Notes
Use freshly grated Parmesan for the best texture and flavor.
Adjust red pepper flakes for your preferred spice level.
Boneless chicken thighs can be used for a juicier option.
