1tablespoonbutter
2 ½-3lbboneless, skinless chicken thighs or breasts
½cupall-purpose flour
2teaspoongarlic powder
1teaspoonsalt
1teaspoonblack pepper
1 ½cupschicken broth
2tablespoonminced garlic cloves

Fresh Parsley for garnish
Instructions
In a shallow dish, whisk together flour, garlic powder, salt and black pepper. Set aside 2 tablespoons of the flour mixture.
To a large skillet on medium-high heat, add oil and butter. Dredge each piece of chicken in the flour mixture, shaking off any excess. Sear the chicken pieces 5 minutes per side or until they reach an internal temperature of 165F. Transfer to a plate while making the sauce.
Turn the skillet down to medium heat, and add ¼ cup of the chicken broth, scraping up any solid bits from the bottom of the pan. Add the fresh garlic and cook, stirring often for 1 minute. Add the reserved flour, stir and cook an additional minute. Gradually stir in the remaining broth and cream or half and half. Once the mixtures come to a light simmer, then add the parmesan cheese.
Once the mixture has thickened, transfer the chicken back into the sauce and flip so that both sides are covered. Serve and garnish with parsley and additional parmesan cheese.
