This savory, creamy chicken recipe is ideal for weeknight dinners or family gatherings. Succulent chicken breasts are enveloped in a rich and creamy sauce, making this dish a guaranteed crowd-pleaser.
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a baking dish with cooking spray or olive oil. Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper on both sides and place them in the baking dish.
In a mixing bowl, combine softened cream cheese, chicken broth, garlic powder, onion powder, Italian seasoning, and shredded cheddar cheese. Blend until smooth and creamy.
Pour the cream cheese mixture over the chicken breasts, ensuring they are evenly coated.
Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake for 25 minutes. After 25 minutes, remove the foil and continue baking for an additional 10-15 minutes until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
Once cooked, let the dish rest for a few minutes and garnish with fresh chopped parsley before serving.
