Cooking Tips for Garlic Parmesan Chicken

Cooking Tips

  • Make sure you trim the fat off the chicken, otherwise the recipe will come out oily.
  • Make sure the chicken is very well coated in the spices.
  • Make sure your chicken has an internal temperature of 165 fahrenheit because that’s the safest temperature for fully cooked chicken. For another simple and satisfying meal, consider making an easy one-pan ground beef and rice dish.
  • Make sure you stir this consistently that way you don’t burn your garlic, okay guys.
  • The longer this sits, the thicker the sauce gets.

Serving Suggestions

You can serve this over mashed potatoes, rice, or egg noodles, and it pairs perfectly with easy homemade garlic bread with parmesan.

This looks so good, the aroma is insane. The chicken came out so juicy and tender and that creamy sauce with the bacon is a match made in heaven. It’s so delicious.
