Ingredients
  

2 boneless skinless chicken fillets

1 cup broccoli florets

1 cup heavy cream

1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 tablespoon olive oil

1 teaspoon Italian seasoning

Salt and pepper to taste

Fresh parsley for garnish (optional)

Instructions
 

Prep the Chicken: Season the chicken fillets with salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning on both sides.

    Cook the Chicken: In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the chicken fillets and cook for about 6-7 minutes on each side until they are golden brown and cooked through. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.

      Steam the Broccoli: In a separate pot, steam the broccoli florets for about 4-5 minutes until tender but still vibrant green. Set aside.

        Make the Cheese Sauce: In the same skillet used for the chicken, reduce the heat to low and add minced garlic. Sauté until fragrant, about 1 minute. Pour in the heavy cream and stir continuously. Gradually add the shredded cheddar cheese and Parmesan cheese, stirring until the cheese is melted and the sauce is smooth.

          Combine Ingredients: Return the cooked chicken to the skillet, flipping it over to coat well with the creamy cheese sauce. Add the steamed broccoli and gently stir everything together on low heat for an additional 2-3 minutes, ensuring the broccoli is covered in the sauce.

            Serve: Transfer the creamy chicken and broccoli to a serving plate. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley if desired, and serve hot.
