Ingredients

2 large chicken breasts
0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
Salt & pepper to taste
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 tablespoon butter
0.5 medium onion chopped
¾ cup chicken broth (use low sodium if sensitive to salt)
1 package (5.2 oz) Boursin Fine Herbs & Garlic cheese softened
1-2 tablespoons chopped parsley to taste, optional

Instructions

Cut the chicken breasts in half lengthwise to get 4 thinner pieces. Season them with the garlic powder and some salt & pepper.
Add the oil and butter to a skillet over medium-high heat and let it heat up for a few minutes. Cook the chicken for about 5-6 minutes/side or until cooked through, then transfer it to a plate.
To the skillet, add the onions and sauté for about 5 minutes or until softened and lightly browned. If the pan seems dry, add a small splash more olive oil.
Add the chicken broth and the Boursin cheese to the skillet. Stir until you've got a smooth sauce. Let it bubble for 5 minutes, then stir in the chopped parsley if using.
Add the chicken (and any plate juices) back into the skillet and let it warm through for a couple of minutes. The sauce should be thicker by now. If it's too thick, you can add another splash of chicken broth.
Season with salt & pepper if needed and serve immediately.

Notes

Boursin cheese can be substituted with any other soft herb cheese if desired.
