This creamy garlic chicken is a delicious and easy one-pot dish that takes only 30 minutes to prepare, making it perfect for a busy weeknight. The chicken is coated in a creamy, buttery, garlicky sauce, which is also perfect as a paste sauce.
Don’t be surprised; this time, I have a non-Asian recipe 🙂. I live in Malaysia, a multicultural country mainly comprised of Malay, Chinese, and Indian. It has also been colonized by several European countries, which has enriched our culinary culture and made it multifaceted. As a result, non-Asian foods with cream sauce are equally popular, even among average families.
So here I am, venturing slightly out of my comfort zone, presenting my version of Creamy Garlic Chicken. I really hope that you will love it.

Ingredients A
2 chicken breasts
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp ground black pepper
1/2 tsp garlic powder
Ingredients B
100g flour
1/4 salt
1/8 ground pepper
Ingredients C
3 tbsp olive oil
1 small onion, chopped
8 garlic cloves
1/3 cup chicken broth
A dash of dried herbs
1/4 cup heavy cream
30g Parmesan cheese
1 tbsp unsalted butter
1 tbsp fried garlic
Method
Pan-fry the chicken
- Slicing the chicken breast horizontally in half.
- Pound them with a meat mallet to tenderize the meat.
- Season it with salt, freshly ground black pepper, and garlic powder.
- Coat the chicken breast meat with flour mix (Ingredients B). Shake off any excess flour and set aside.
- Add olive oil to a pan or a large skillet to pan-fry chicken over medium heat, ensuring it is not overcrowded.
- When the chicken has turned golden, turn it over to pan-fry the other side. - Remove and leave the oil in the pan.
Prepare the sauce
- Use the remaining oil in the pan to sauté the chopped onion. Halfway through, add the garlic cloves to the pan and mix them with the onion.
- Continue sautéing until the garlic cloves turn slightly golden brown.
- Add the chicken broth to deglaze all the browned bits in the pan. You may also include some herbs of your preference.
- Add about 1/4 cup of heavy cream to the pan to make the garlic sauce creamy.
- Next, add the Parmesan cheese to the sauce.
- Return the tender chicken breasts to the pan and coat them with the creamy sauce.
- Add a small piece of unsalted butter to make the sauce even creamier.
- Cook it down until you reach the desired consistency, and then remove it from the pan.
- Place the chicken pieces on a serving plate. Drizzle the cream sauce on top, sprinkle some fresh parsley to garnish, and fried garlic for extra garlic flavor.
