Ingredients

  • 80 g Plain flour
  • 2 tbsp Paprika
  • 1/2 tsp Salt
  • 1/2 tsp Black Pepper
  • 2 Chicken breasts
  • 4 Cloves of garlic chopped
  • 150 ml Chicken stock
  • 150 ml Double cream
  • 15 g Parsley chopped

Instructions

  • In a bowl, add the flour, half of the paprika, salt and pepper. Mix well.
  • Slice the chicken in half lengthways to give 4 thinner fillets. Coat each piece in the seasoned flour.
  • Heat some cooking oil in a large frying pan, then cook the chicken over a medium to high heat until they are golden all over. This should take 3-4 minutes on each side.
  • Remove the chicken from the pan, then add the garlic and cook for 30 seconds. Pour in the chicken stock, double cream and remaining paprika.
  • Get the chicken back into the pan, stir to coat, then bring to the boil and cook until it’s thick and creamy.
  • Sprinkle in the parsley and taste for seasoning, then dish it up. This goes well with pasta, rice, or potatoes. I went for some baby hasselback potatoes with broccoli.

    I’ll be making this next week! I know it’s a silly question but how do you make the potatoes that you have pictured with the chicken? They look amazing too!

    1. I hope you like it. The potatoes are very simple, look up ‘baby hasselback potatoes’ on my website and the recipe is there.

    Made this today for hubby’s lunch, only difference was I used smoked paprika. He loved it said the chicken was so tender and a really quick meal to make with pasta . Can’t add a photo for some reason.

    We were absolutely delighted with the end result after following Jon Watts recipe to the full.
    The creamy sauce complimented the chicken perfectly and it was a most satisfying evening meal with a chilled French white Pinot Gris as the finishing touch.
    Definitely recommend that you try this.

      Absolutely delicious, I did it first time just to myself but now my family adores it too. Simple, fast and tasty, perfect example of everyday meal. I have used basmati rice instead of potatoes and it worked great as well.

    Very simple and tasty.
    Cooked with the hassleback potatoes and was a winner in the house.
    Clean plates all round.
    Very easy home cooked, fresh meals.
    Keep the recipes coming.
