Ingredients
  

  • 2 boneless skinless chicken breasts, sliced in half lengthwise
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • Salt & pepper to taste
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 1 small onion diced
  • ½ cup chicken broth
  • 1 5.2-ounce package Boursin cheese (Garlic & Fine Herbs)
  • 1 tablespoon fresh parsley chopped

Instructions
 

  • Slice the chicken breasts in half to create thinner pieces. Season both sides with garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
  • Heat olive oil and butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and cook for about 4-5 minutes per side until golden brown. Remove and set aside.
  • In the same skillet, add diced onions. Sauté for 2-3 minutes until softened.
  • Pour in the chicken broth and stir. Add the Boursin cheese, stirring constantly until the sauce becomes smooth and creamy. Simmer for 2-3 minutes.
  • Return the chicken to the skillet, coating it in the sauce. Let it warm through for about 2 minutes.
  • Garnish with fresh parsley and serve hot over mashed potatoes, rice, or pasta.

Notes

  • If the sauce is too thick, add a splash of extra broth.
  • Use low-sodium chicken broth if you prefer a less salty dish.
  • Try different Boursin flavors like Shallot & Chive for a twist.
