Recipe by Carolyn Sheppard An easy and very tasty way to perk up your mid-week menu. Very creamy and a sure win for garlic lovers. Goes great over grilled or baked chicken breasts.

Ingredients

4 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 teaspoon dried basil
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 tablespoon butter
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
3 cloves garlic, chopped
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
1 cup heavy whipping cream
1/2 cup chicken broth
1/2 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
2 ounces cream cheese, softened

Instructions

Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate.
Season chicken breasts with oregano, basil, salt, and black pepper.
Cook the chicken breasts on preheated grill until no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, 5 to 6 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
Melt butter with vegetable oil in a saucepan over medium heat. Cook and stir garlic in the butter mixture until fragrant, about 2 minutes. Stir flour through the butter mixture; cook and stir until flour is incorporated, about 1 minute more. Pour heavy cream and chicken broth into the saucepan; stir. Continue cooking until the mixture thickens, 3 to 5 minutes. Add Parmesan cheese and cream cheese to the saucepan; cook, stirring occasionally, until the cheese is melted into the sauce, about 5 minutes.
Plate the chicken breasts. Spoon sauce over the chicken. Serve extra sauce on the side.
