Ingredients

– 2 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cubed
– 1 cup unsalted butter (2 sticks)
– 1 medium onion, chopped

– 1 cup heavy cream

– 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
– Salt and pepper to taste
– 1 cup chicken broth
– Fresh parsley for garnish


Instructions

Creating the Texas Roadhouse Butter Chicken Skillet is simple if you follow these steps:

1. Prep Chicken: Start by cubing the chicken breasts into bite-sized pieces and seasoning with salt and pepper.
2. Melt Butter: In a large skillet, melt 1 stick of unsalted butter over medium heat.
3. Cook Chicken: Add the chicken cubes to the skillet and cook for about 5-7 minutes until golden brown. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
4. Sauté Vegetables: In the same skillet, add the remaining stick of butter. Once melted, add chopped onions and minced garlic. Sauté until the onions are translucent, about 3-4 minutes.
5. Add Spices: Stir in paprika and Italian seasoning, allowing the spices to infuse while mixing with the sautéing onions.
6. Return Chicken: Add the cooked chicken back into the skillet, mixing well with the onion and seasoning.
7. Incorporate Cream: Pour in the heavy cream and chicken broth, stirring. Let this mixture simmer for about 10 minutes, allowing the sauce to thicken.
8. Taste and Adjust: Adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper as needed and stir to combine all flavors.
9. Garnish: Before serving, sprinkle freshly chopped parsley on top for added color and flavor.
10. Serve: Turn off the heat, and let the skillet sit for a minute before serving.

Each step is designed to ensure that the dish is both flavorful and easy to prepare, making dinner a delightful occasion!
