Baked Cream Cheese Chicken is a delicious and creamy dish that combines tender chicken breasts with a rich cream cheese sauce, topped with melted mozzarella and fresh parsley.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 600 g boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • 1 tsp Italian seasoning
  • ½ tsp garlic powder
  • ½ tsp salt
  • ¼ tsp black pepper
  • 225 g cream cheese, softened
  • 120 ml heavy cream
  • 80 ml chicken broth
  • 60 g grated Parmesan cheese
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tsp Italian seasoning
  • ½ tsp onion powder
  • ¼ tsp black pepper
  • ½ tsp salt, or to taste
  • 100 g shredded mozzarella, for topping
  • 2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 190°C. Lightly grease a 23 × 33 cm baking dish.
  2. Pat the chicken breasts dry. Rub them with olive oil, paprika, Italian seasoning, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
  3. In a bowl, beat together the softened cream cheese, heavy cream, chicken broth, Parmesan, garlic, Italian seasoning, onion powder, salt, and pepper until smooth.
  4. Place the seasoned chicken in the baking dish. Spread the cream cheese mixture evenly over and around the chicken.
  5. Cover loosely with foil and bake for 25 minutes.
  6. Remove the foil and sprinkle the mozzarella over the top. Return to the oven and bake for another 10–15 minutes, until the cheese is golden and the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 74°C.
  7. Let the chicken rest for 5 minutes, then sprinkle with fresh parsley.

Notes

  • Ensure the chicken is cooked to an internal temperature of 74°C for safety.
  • Feel free to adjust the seasoning according to your taste.
  • This dish pairs well with a side of vegetables or rice.
