Ingredients

Scale

For your Easy One-Pan Boursin Chicken, you will need the following ingredients:

  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 1 (5.2 oz) package of Boursin cheese (garlic and herb variety)
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 1/2 cup chicken broth
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • Fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)

Instructions

Prepare the Chicken:

  1. Season the Chicken: Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper on both sides.
  2. Heat the Pan: In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the chicken breasts to the pan.
  3. Sear the Chicken: Cook the chicken breasts for about 6-7 minutes on each side until they are golden brown and cooked through (internal temperature should reach 165°F). Remove the chicken from the pan and set it aside.

Make the Boursin Sauce:

  1. Melt Butter: In the same skillet, reduce the heat to medium and melt the butter.
  2. Add Boursin Cheese: Once the butter is melted, add the Boursin cheese to the pan and stir until it starts to soften.
  3. Add Cream and Broth: Pour in the heavy cream and chicken broth, stirring to combine. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer, letting it cook for about 3-4 minutes until the sauce thickens.
  4. Season: Taste and adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper if necessary.

Combine and Finish:

  1. Return the Chicken: Add the chicken back into the pan, spooning some of the sauce over the top of each breast.
  2. Simmer: Let the chicken simmer in the sauce for an additional 5 minutes, ensuring that the chicken is coated in the creamy sauce and heated through.

Serve:

  1. Garnish: Garnish with freshly chopped parsley, if desired, and serve immediately with your favorite sides.
