Creamy Baked Chicken Dinner (Print Version)

# Ingredients:

→ For the Chicken

01 - 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts

02 - 1 tablespoon olive oil

03 - 1/2 cup chicken broth

→ For the Creamy Topping

04 - 1 package (8 oz) cream cheese, softened

05 - 1 clove garlic, minced fresh

06 - 1 tablespoon fresh chopped chives

07 - 1 teaspoon paprika

08 - Salt and pepper to taste

→ Optional Toppings

09 - 1/2 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese

10 - Fresh parsley for garnish

# Instructions:

01 - Get your oven nice and hot at 375°F (190°C). Grab a baking dish and give it a light coating of oil.

02 - In a bowl, mix your softened cream cheese with minced garlic, fresh chives, paprika, and a pinch of salt and pepper until it's smooth and creamy.

03 - Place your chicken breasts in the baking dish and spread that tasty cream cheese mixture all over each piece. Pour the chicken broth around them and drizzle with olive oil.

04 - Pop it in the oven for about 25-30 minutes until your chicken is cooked through. If you're using cheddar, sprinkle it on top with 5 minutes left to get it melty and golden.

05 - Let it rest for a few minutes, then sprinkle with fresh parsley if you like. Serve it up hot and enjoy!

# Notes:

01 - Try adding some chopped spinach or sundried tomatoes to the cream cheese mix for extra flavor

02 - Goes great with cauliflower rice or zoodles if you're watching carbs
