Creamy Herb Chicken
Accidentally, and incidentally, this recipe is low carb AND gluten free with just under 5g carbs per serve! What did I do? Picture this: Juicy, tender chicken breasts, simmered in a flavourful and creamy herb sauce with a hint of garlic — HELLO — easy weekday meal.
The BEST sauce
So thick and creamy, this creamy herb sauce pairs perfectly over rice, pasta, or Creamy Mashed Potatoes. To keep the entire meal low carb, try it over cauliflower mash!
Chicken recipe
If you know me by now, I don’t need to apologise for this recipe being cooked in the one pan, right? I’m ADDICTED to one pan creamy chicken recipes. We have Piccata’s and Sun Dried Tomato chickens flying around all over the place.
Just like those recipes, this whole thing is super easy BUT loaded with flavour.
How To Make Creamy Chicken
First, you’re going to season you chicken in ALL the herbs. For this recipe, I chose:
- Thyme
- Rosemary
- Parsley.
You can use Tarragon, or Basil with Oregano if you prefer.
Fry said chicken breasts > remove from pan > make creamy sauce > lick your fingers. See? E.A.S.Y.
After that, you can smother your fillets with the sauce and serve over any side you desire!

Creamy Herb Chicken
Ingredients
For The Chicken:
- 4 chicken breasts (pounded 1/2-inch thin)
- 2 teaspoons each of onion powder and garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon fresh chopped parsley
- 1/2 teaspoon each of dried thyme and dried rosemary*
- salt and pepper , to season
For The Sauce:
- 4 cloves garlic , minced (or 1 tablespoon minced garlic)
- 1 teaspoon fresh chopped parsley
- 1/2 teaspoon each of dried thyme and dried rosemary
- 1 cup milk (or half and half)*
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper , to taste
- 1 teaspoon cornstarch mixed with 1 tablespoon water , until smooth
Instructions
- Coat chicken breasts with the onion and garlic powders and herbs. Season generously with salt and pepper.
- Heat 1 tablespoon of oil a large pan or skillet over medium-high heat and cook chicken breasts until opaque and no longer pink inside (about 5 minutes each side, depending on thickness). Transfer to a plate; set aside.
- To the same pan or skillet, heat another 2 teaspoons of olive oil and sauté garlic, with parsley, thyme and rosemary, for about 1 minute, or until fragrant.
- Stir in milk (or cream); season with salt and pepper, to taste.
- Bring to a boil; add the cornstarch mixture to the centre of the pan, quickly stirring, until sauce has thickened slightly. Reduce heat and simmer gently for a further minute to allow the sauce to thicken more.
- Return chicken to the skillet. Sprinkle with extra herbs if desired. Serve immediately.
Notes
**For a dairy free option, I find Cashew milk the best in flavour. You can also use almond milk or rice milk.
Yes, heavy cream can be substituted!
