Instructions
Prep
Flatten both chicken breasts to even thickness with your palm. Season both sides with salt and pepper. Mince 8 garlic cloves finely. Grate 40g Parmesan. Pick 6 thyme sprigs. Measure cream, stock, and parsley.
Sear
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sear chicken 5–6 minutes per side until golden and internal temperature reaches 75°C. Remove to a warm plate.
Bloom
Reduce heat to medium, add butter and minced garlic to the same pan. Cook 60–90 seconds, stirring constantly, until softened and fragrant but not browned.
Build
Add chicken stock and thyme sprigs, simmer 2 minutes, scraping up browned bits. Pour in double cream, stir to combine, and simmer 3–4 minutes until sauce coats the back of a spoon.
Finish
Stir in grated Parmesan until melted and season to taste. Return chicken to pan, spoon sauce over for 1 minute to reheat through.
Plate
Transfer chicken to serving plates, spoon sauce over, garnish with chopped parsley, and serve immediately.
