Ingredients
Scale
- 2 chicken breasts, diced
- 2 cups rice
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 cup grated parmesan cheese
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon dried herbs (like Italian seasoning)
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh parsley for garnish
Instructions
- In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced chicken, seasoning it with salt, pepper, and dried herbs. Cook until browned and fully cooked, about 5–7 minutes. Once done, remove the chicken and set aside.
