Creamy Onion Chicken
Juicy chicken breasts smothered in a rich, creamy onion gravy that tastes like pure comfort in every bite. Perfect for busy weeknights or cozy dinners at home.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 boneless chicken breasts
- 2 medium yellow onions, thinly sliced
- 3 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 cup chicken broth
- 3/4 cup heavy cream
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions
- Heat olive oil and butter in a large skillet over medium heat.
- Season the chicken with salt and pepper, then sear until golden on both sides, about 5–6 minutes per side. Remove and set aside.
- Add onions to the same skillet with a pinch of salt. Cook on medium-low, stirring occasionally, until soft and golden brown, about 15–20 minutes. Add garlic and cook for another minute.
- Pour in the chicken broth and stir, scraping up the browned bits. Simmer for 2–3 minutes.
- Stir in the heavy cream and return the chicken to the skillet. Spoon sauce over the chicken.
- Cover and simmer for 10 minutes or until the chicken is fully cooked and the sauce thickens.
- Taste and adjust seasoning. Garnish with fresh parsley and serve hot.
Notes
- For deeper flavor, add a splash of lemon juice at the end.
- Double the sauce if you like it extra creamy.
- Use boneless thighs for a juicier option.
