If you’ve got a little bit of extra time to spare on making dinner, this is the recipe to end all recipes and we’re always so happy we made it. You can’t be shy about garlic when it comes to this bad boy. After all, it’s called roasted garlic chicken skillet for a reason! Deliciously fried chicken coated in a roasted garlic cream sauce?? Whoa, you haven’t tasted greatness until you’ve tried this.
For those of you on the fence about this much garlic, fret not. While, yes, two heads (not cloves!) seems like it could be overpowering, roasting the garlic ahead of time brings out a natural sweetness that is totally irresistible. That way, once it goes into the sauce, it’s a perfect, smooth flavor and consistency that doesn’t at all have the harsh bite that fresh garlic can have. Plus, with some heavy cream and parmesan cheese in the mix, you’re looking at an amazing sauce that you can use in just about any savory recipe you can think of. Smothered on potatoes or brussels sprouts?? You betcha. Tossed in with some spaghetti? Yummm. You really can’t go wrong here, folks.
It’s easy to get swept away thinking about the sauce, but that’s not the only great thing about this recipe, as there’s also the deliciously fried chicken to think about as well. The process makes this recipe a little more labor-intensive, but it is so worth it. You’ve got a seasoned flour mixture, an egg wash, and then a panko parmesan parsley medley to finish things off, and trust us, you don’t want to skip any of these elements; following them gets you the lightest, most flavorful breading you could ever want, which holds onto the creamy, cheesy sauce all the better! Can you tell we’re obsessed with this recipe?? Don’t worry, you’ll understand soon enough.
