Effortless Chicken with Boursin (Print Version)
# Ingredients:
→ For Garnish
01 -
1 tablespoon chopped parsley, fresh
→ For the Boursin Sauce
02 -
1/2 cup heavy cream
03 -
1/2 cup chicken broth
04 -
1 pack (5.2 oz) Boursin Garlic & Fine Herbs Cheese
→ For the Chicken
05 -
1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika, if you like
06 -
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
07 -
1/2 teaspoon salt
08 -
2 tablespoons butter or olive oil
09 -
4 chicken breasts, boneless and skinless (around 1.5 lbs)
# Instructions:
01 -
Scatter some fresh parsley on top and enjoy warm, maybe with rice, roasted veggies, or noodles.
02 -
Pop the chicken back in the skillet. Let everything bubble gently in the sauce for about 8-10 minutes, until the thickest piece reads 165°F.
03 -
Turn down the heat a bit. Pour in chicken broth while scraping up any tasty brown bits. Add Boursin and cream. Keep stirring till it’s all melted into a smooth sauce.
04 -
Drizzle your butter or oil into a big skillet on medium-high heat. Lay down the chicken pieces—they need 4-5 minutes per side till they get a good golden color. Take them out for now.
05 -
Shake on salt, pepper, and (if you’re in the mood) smoked paprika. Get both sides nicely covered.
# Notes:
01 -
Toss in some sautéed mushrooms or spinach if you want more flavor
02 -
Switch to chicken thighs if you’re after extra juiciness
