🥩✨ LongHorn-Style Creamy Parmesan Chicken With Garlic Herb Sauce
If you love restaurant-quality meals but want to make them at home for a fraction of the price, this dish is going to become your new absolute favorite. The sauce is buttery and rich, the chicken is tender and juicy, and the whole dish feels like comfort and luxury in every bite.
📜 A Little History Behind This Recipe
LongHorn Steakhouse is known for its thick, juicy steaks and signature chicken dishes — and this particular Parmesan chicken has always been a customer favorite.
Years ago, local newspapers sometimes published “famous restaurant copycat recipes,” and that’s exactly where this one came from. My mom clipped it out, saved it, and eventually passed it to me… and I am SO glad she did.
This recipe has been made and remade in so many kitchens that it’s basically become a tradition.
🍳 Formation of the Dish (How the Recipe Developed)
Restaurants build flavor in simple layers:
- Sear the chicken
- Build the sauce in the same pan
- Add butter for richness
- Add Parmesan for depth
- Add herbs for freshness
This homemade version keeps that restaurant technique — but makes the process simple, fast, and perfect for home cooks. Over time, we added a little more garlic… a little more cream… and now the flavor is EXACT.
🧂🧄 INGREDIENTS
(For 4 servings)
For the Chicken:
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- Salt & black pepper
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp paprika
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tbsp butter
For the Creamy Parmesan Sauce:
- 2 tbsp butter
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 cup grated Parmesan
- 1/2 cup chicken broth
- 1 tsp Italian seasoning
- 1/2 tsp onion powder
- Salt & pepper, to taste
- Chopped parsley for garnish
🍽️ METHOD & STEP-BY-STEP INSTRUCTIONS
1. Season & Sear the Chicken
Season both sides of the chicken with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika.
Heat olive oil + 1 tbsp butter in a pan.
Cook chicken on both sides until golden brown.
Remove and set aside.
2. Build the Garlic Parmesan Sauce
In the same pan:

Simmer until thick and creamy.
3. Combine
