Creamy Garlic Chicken Alfredo

Ingredients

• •4 chicken legs, bone-in, skin-on
• •1 cup heavy cream
• •3 tablespoons butter
• •1 teaspoon garlic powder
• •1/2 cup Parmesan cheese, finely grated
• •1 cup mixed vegetables, thawed if frozen
• •1/4 cup cashews, roughly chopped
• •salt and black pepper seasoning, to taste

Directions

1. 1Season chicken legs generously with salt, pepper, and garlic powder on all sides.
2. 2Melt butter in a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat until foaming.
3. 3Sear chicken legs skin-side down for 6 minutes until deeply golden, then flip.
4. 4Transfer skillet to 400°F oven and roast chicken legs for 22 minutes until cooked through.
5. 5Remove chicken and set aside; pour off all but one tablespoon of drippings.
6. 6Pour heavy cream into the same skillet over medium heat, scraping up browned bits.
7. 7Stir in Parmesan and mixed vegetables; simmer 4 minutes until sauce thickens slightly.
8. 8Return chicken to skillet, top with cashews, and serve immediately.

💡 Let the cream sauce reduce until it coats a spoon — this gives you a richer, lower-carb sauce with extra protein from the Parmesan.
