⭐ Ingredients

For the Chicken

  • 2 large chicken breasts, sliced into strips
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika
  • ½ tsp onion powder
  • Salt & pepper to taste

For the Broccoli

  • 3 cups broccoli florets
  • Salt to taste

Creamy Garlic Sauce (Low-Carb)

  • 1 cup heavy cream (or full-fat coconut milk if dairy-free)
  • ⅓ cup grated parmesan cheese
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tbsp butter
  • ½ tsp Italian seasoning
  • Salt & pepper to taste

👩‍🍳 Instructions

1. Grill the Chicken

Heat a skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat.
Toss chicken strips in oil and seasonings.
Cook 4–5 minutes per side until golden and charred edges appear.
Set aside.

2. Steam or sauté the Broccoli

Steam broccoli until bright green and tender-crisp (about 5 minutes).
Or sauté in a bit of butter and salt for extra flavor.

3. Make the Creamy Garlic Sauce

In a small saucepan:

  • Melt butter
  • Add garlic and sauté 30 seconds until fragrant
  • Pour in heavy cream
  • Add parmesan + Italian seasoning
  • Simmer gently 3–5 minutes until thickened
  • Salt & pepper to taste

The sauce should be velvety and spoon-coat thick. 🤤

4. Build the Bowls

Add broccoli to the bottom of a bowl.
Lay grilled chicken slices on top.
Pour warm creamy garlic sauce generously over everything.

Serve immediately!
