Quick And Easy Creamy Smothered Chicken And Rice For Busy Weeknights

4.0

1.5 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs, cut into bite-sized chunks

1 tbsp olive oil or butter

1 tsp garlic powder

1 tsp onion powder

½ tsp smoked paprika

Salt and pepper, to taste

1 tbsp butter

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 cup heavy cream or half & half

½ cup chicken broth

½ cup sour cream

½ tsp mustard (optional)

¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese

Salt and black pepper, to taste

Fresh chopped parsley, for garnish

3 cups cooked white rice

Heat olive oil or butter in a large skillet over medium heat.
Season the chicken pieces with garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and pepper.
Add the chicken to the skillet and cook until golden and fully cooked (about 6–8 minutes). Remove and set aside.
In the same pan, melt 1 tbsp butter.
Add minced garlic and sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant.
Pour in the chicken broth and let it simmer for 1 minute to deglaze.
Add heavy cream, sour cream, and Parmesan cheese. Stir until smooth.
Let it simmer for 3–5 minutes until it thickens slightly. Season with salt and pepper.
Return cooked chicken to the pan.
Simmer everything together for another 3–4 minutes so the chicken is smothered and coated in the sauce.
Plate a scoop of warm cooked rice.
Spoon creamy chicken and sauce generously on top.
Garnish with chopped fresh parsley.
