A flavorful chicken and gravy dish cooked on the stovetop, featuring tender chicken breasts smothered in creamy, savory gravy.

  • Total Time: 40 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 small onion, chopped
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 cups chicken broth
  • 1 cup heavy cream or milk
  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
  2. Season chicken breasts with salt and pepper, then cook until golden brown on both sides, about 6-8 minutes per side. Remove and set aside.
  3. In the same skillet, sauté chopped onion and garlic until fragrant and soft.
  4. Whisk in flour to create a roux, cooking for 1-2 minutes.
  5. Gradually add chicken broth, stirring constantly until the sauce thickens.
  6. Reduce heat and stir in heavy cream or milk. Return chicken to the skillet and simmer until cooked through and gravy has thickened, about 10 minutes.
  7. Garnish with chopped parsley before serving.

Notes

  • Adjust the thickness of gravy by adding more or less chicken broth or cream.
  • Serve with mashed potatoes, rice, or crusty bread for a complete meal.
