Preparation

Step 1

Preparation

Wash chicken and pat dry. Put chicken breasts between sheets of plastic wrap or in a food storage bag and gently pound to thin evenly. Sprinkle the chicken breasts lightly with salt and pepper. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add chicken and cook for about 5 to 6 minutes on each side, until nicely browned and cooked through. Juices should run clear when the thickest part of a chicken breast is cut with a knife.

Meanwhile, in a saucepan, melt butter over medium-low heat. Saute the garlic and green onions for about 1 minute. Add the cream cheese, milk or half-and-half, and Parmesan cheese and heat until hot and smooth. Stir in pepper and salt, to taste. Serve chicken with the sauce and garnish with parsley.
Serves 4 to 6.
