- Sauté garlic in skillet for a minute until fragrant.
- Pour in chicken stock and deglaze pan scraping up any browned bits.
- Add heavy cream, bring to a simmer and cook 2–3 minutes to thicken.
- Stir in parmesan cheese until melted and incorporated into sauce.

- Return chicken to pan, spoon sauce over, and simmer 2–3 more minutes. Garnish with fresh basil and serve warm.
Notes
To slice chicken into thin cutlets: slice breast in half horizontally. For more flavor, add a little sundried tomato oil with garlic sauté. Don’t use half-and-half – it won’t thicken correctly. For freshest results, grate parmesan from a block. Leftovers store up to 3 days, reheat with a splash of water to thin sauce.
