Instructions
Creating Grilled Chicken & Broccoli Bowls with Creamy Garlic Sauce is simple if you follow these steps:
1. Marinate the Chicken: In a bowl, mix olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Add chicken breasts and marinate for at least 15 minutes.
2. Grill the Chicken: Heat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Cook the chicken for about 5-7 minutes on each side, or until fully cooked. Remove from the heat and let it rest for a few minutes.
3. Blanch the Broccoli: While the chicken cooks, bring a small pot of salted water to a boil. Blanch the broccoli florets for about 2-3 minutes, then drain and set aside.
4. Prepare the Sauce: In a saucepan over medium heat, add butter and minced garlic. Sauté until fragrant. Then, whisk in heavy cream and let it simmer for about 4-5 minutes. Stir in Parmesan cheese and lemon juice until well combined.
5. Slice the Chicken: After resting, slice the grilled chicken into strips.
6. Assemble the Bowls: In a bowl, layer the blanched broccoli and sliced chicken. Drizzle generously with the creamy garlic sauce.
7. Garnish: Sprinkle fresh parsley on top for added flavor and a pop of color.
