Ingredients
Scale
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 1.5 lbs)
- 5 cloves fresh garlic, minced
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 cup grated fresh Parmesan cheese
- 1 tsp red pepper flakes (adjust to taste)
- 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil

- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
