Ingredients
  

  • 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
  • 8 oz cream cheese softened
  • 4 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 cup chicken broth
  • 1 tsp dried Italian seasoning
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 1/2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
  • Fresh parsley chopped, for garnish

Equipment

  • Baking dish (9x13 inch)
  • Mixing bowl
  • Whisk
  • Measuring cups and spoons
  • Knife and cutting board

Method
 

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
  2. Arrange Chicken: Place the chicken breasts in the prepared baking dish.
  3. Mix Sauce: In a mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, minced garlic, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Gradually whisk in the chicken broth until smooth.
  4. Pour and Spread: Pour the cream cheese sauce over the chicken breasts, spreading it evenly. Top with shredded mozzarella.
  5. Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken is fully cooked. If needed, cover loosely with foil to prevent over-browning.
