This was a wonderfully easy recipe to follow. However, I made a slight change of my own. I doubled the sauce recipe and poured it over the raw seasoned chicken and cooked it in the oven at 350 for 30-35 minutes. The chicken was cooked in the sauce and came out juicy and full of the creamy garlic flavor. YUM!!

My review is for the sauce, we grilled our chicken using our own favorite recipe. The sauce is a nice topping for grilled chicken, a little bit sinful, but nice and cheesy garlicky. I reduced the recipe for two people, didn't use vegetable oil, just the butter, and used half and half and 1/3 reduced fat cream cheese.
This was wonderful! Used fresh dried herbs crumbled over frozen chicken breast, drizzled with olive oil & thrown in the Foreman grill. I cooked some brown rice in chicken boullion, then added the cooked chicken, covered with the sauce, voila! Awesome, we all loved it.
Wife and I absolutely loved this. As another reviewer suggested, I used the 1/3 fat cream cheese and I used fat-free half & half. We like garlic, so I used 3 tsp. of chopped garlic. This sauce stands up on its own and I'll use it on pasta in the future.
Amazing! I made it according to directions, which was great, and then I made it another time with modifications. I pan-seared the chicken, then used the same pan to build the sauce. I made some fettuccine, tossed it in the sauce, sliced the chicken an put it on top with some Parmesan. I think I preferred the modified recipe, but I liked the original, too.

absolutely amazing!!! I have used this in substitute for my Béarnaise sauce, Hollandaise sauce a couple of times. Everyone just loves it and prefers it. I have now doubled the sauce recipe now and freeze half. Awesome sauce.
I seasoned the raw chicken a bit more in a baking dish. I added adobo, garlic salt, and siracha seasoning, and cayenne pepper along with the other seasonings the recipe calls for. I then melted double the amount of ingredients in a pan, using light butter (instead of full fat) and olive oil (instead of vegetable oil). Next I added flour, garlic, pepper, low sodium chicken broth, fat free cream, and low fat cream cheese. I seasoned the sauce with some pepper and then poured it over the chicken in the baking dish. I cooked it for 30-35 minutes in the oven on 350 degrees. I served it over steamed green beans. It was one of the best meals I've ever made. Enjoy!
It is really rich. I made it exactly as listed here and put it over a grilled chicken thigh. The flavor is good but I think next time I'll skip the cream cheese.
Terrifically easy sauce recipe with graceful taste. It added life to the grilled chicken. My husband and I enjoyed this sauce and grilled chicken over a bed of green beans steamed in chicken broth. My husband is not a fan of sauces and gravies but, surprisingly, he said "this is the best sauce I've ever tasted." He's right.
My husband is not really a fan of chicken but after tasting this sauce on the chicken... he asked me to make it again tomorrow night! He loved it! Thank you!
AMAZING..Didn't change a thing and I will tell you it was a HIT. I fed 70 women and I can't even remember how many asked me for the recipe! SUCH a yummy, decadent sauce!!!!
Awesome for a quick meal! The only changes I made were to use 1% milk over heavy cream, it still came out delicious! I also added parsley to the seasoning of the chicken.
My husband thought this was good but a regular chicken dish and gave it 4 stars. I thought it was delicious and gave it 5 stars. I’m the cook, 5 stars it is.
Made only the sauce. As with any gravy or sauce, be prepared to add extra liquid to thin it to your preference. I added a sprinkle of Savory Spice roasted garlic, salt & pepper as I like a heavier garlic flavor. I put it over spinach, swiss cheese & bacon stuffed chicken breasts. This will be a staple sauce for me now.
OMG!!!!! Soooooo delicioussssssss. I'm not a garlic-lover, so for next time I will only use 1 or 1 1/2 cloves of garlic. But if you are a garlic-lover go for it. AMAZING SAUCEEEE.
Tasty. Only 4 stars because I used milk instead of cream to save on calories. Also needed a bit more spicing up for our taste so sprinkled a bit of cayenne on top of chicken/sauce. Served on a bed of spinach for a complete meal.
My husband and I absolutely love this sauce for all kinds of dishes. We tried the recipe as is the first time at it was great but we added a few things the second time and created our own.
I am always looking to try something new that is fast and simple! This was delicious and fairly easy to prepare! I will definitely make again!
Love it! It's so much more than just a sauce for chicken. I think it would be fantastic on linguine. The only changes I made- I finely chopped 1/3 of an onion and added it with the garlic. It is rich, like an Alfredo but oooohhh sssooo goooood! I have 4 boys, 5 counting my husband, and they all loved it too, so it's kid approved!
This is THE BEST. I even used less cream (more broth) and it was still creamy and delicious. Served with rice.
My family loved it. We had it with pasta and put the sauce over the noodles.
Absolutely delicious! I made the chicken in the oven with rice and poured the sauce on top. covered it with aluminum foil and baked at 350 degrees for 1 hr. Rice was really good. Im going to cook noodles and add them next time to see which i like better. My husband said it was so good it was evil.
We sautéed some mushrooms, peppers, and onions in a touch of teriyaki and smothered steaks with everything. SOOOOO GOOOOOD!! I didn't have pure Parmesan on hand, but used a shredded mix of parm, asiago, and a couple others.
My family fell in love with this recipe. I first made it last week and after several request I made it again this evening.
I did not change anything with the recipe and my whole family loved it. The poured the garlic cream sauce over everything in the meal. I will definitely make this again.
I love this easy recipe. I would suggest that if you’re using it as a sauce after cooking your chicken, make half the recipe. If you’re using it to cook with make the full recipe.
I made the sauce and it is a winner. The taste and consistency is similar to Alfredo. The cons are the number of ingredients and steps that go into it. I wouldn't consider making this after coming home from work, but I will make it again on a weekend.
I just used the sauce from this recipe and it was great!
This is an outstanding recipe. I adjusted it for two, butterflied two breasts and cooked over real wood charcoal. The sauce takes this dish to a different level. Definitely a keeper. Thank you Kari for sharing!
Easy and really delicious
I needed a substitute garlic cream sauce for something else & happened upon this one. It was so tasty and will now be a staple sauce in my house. I might try the chicken at a later time.
Well it was something to eat and for a one time only dish it was passable. We won't be having this again.
I already had chicken done fave recipe I have but I did make the garlic sauce, delicious. Didn’t have fresh Parmesan so had to improvise with my shaker. Still delicious. Will definitely make again. Love garlic!!
Husband LOVED this recipe. I added extra garlic to this recipe and it turned out great. We will be adding this to the rotation as a regular.
I followed the recipe exact. When I got done, I had to add seasoning to the sauce. It was pretty bland in my opinion. I added pepper, garlic powder, and cracked Italian seasoning blend to taste. It was pretty thick so I added chicken broth a little at a time to a desired consistency. I will make this again with my modifications and I will probably cut back on the cream cheese as well or omit it completely and only use fresh grated parmasean. Over all it was good and easy. Thank you for sharing!
I like this recipe because the chicken and the sauce are made separately. This is helpful to those people that are watching their weight and don’t want to put the sauce on the chicken. Oh, and btw, it tastes great with or without the sauce!
I haven't even tasted the chicken recipe yet, but that sauce is to die for! Next time, I'm going to add a little more flour to thicken it up and turn it into an alfredo sauce for pasta.
This was an excellent recipe! Very easy to make and quite tasty. I will definitely be making it again.
Very rich, but great. I followed the reviewer's suggestion (scjpoirier), simply because I was too lazy to use the grill. It came out great, but I could only eat a small portion, as it is so rich. I will make it again, but will pull out the grill next time and use it more as a dip.
Very Good, will make this again. Very rich high in fay but delish!!
Very solid and good recipe that both tastes great and plates well. I followed the recipe to a tee and served over herb flavored basmati rice with a side of asparagus. I made the recipe for only two people, but made a full batch of the sauce because it looked like it would be good. I saved the sauce for alfredo sauce. Excellent.
This fantastic! I had the kids at hockey and my wife prepared this came in and wow! it is absolutely fantastic. A keeper for sure as it is simple to make. Only thing that was done differently is she doubled the sauce!
This sauce was a huge hit! It certainly would pair well with pork, too. I used grapeseed oil instead of vegetable oil and it turned out just perfect!
This sauce is amazing in taste and easy to make. It will be one of my go to recipes from now on.
This was unfortunately a pretty big letdown. After reading the reviews, I was excited about the sauce first and foremost, but it was essentially a basic Alfredo sauce which, combined with a fairly bland chicken, left much to wish for. Will not be making again.
it was ok. hubby said the sauce had no flavor. i think it could have used maybe some white wine, but what i really thought was missing was lemon. not sure if it would have worked, but while eating it, thats the flavor i felt was missing.
I had to bake chicken instead of grill, I would use the sauce on pork chops too! A good Sunday meal! Thanks for sharing this keeper!
I added sauteed mushrooms to top the chicken. Really great recipe.
I also substituted 1% milk for the cream, Neufchâtel instead of cream cheese and used cornstarch versus flour to make it a little healthier.
I just made this! Doubled the sauce, put it over 1/2 box angel hair pasta with the chicken on the side and a small salad, glass of white wine. . . OMG! Amazing!
This is DELICIOUS! My family loved it. I think I just heard the words “this is the best dinner ever” come from my son’s mouth. I will definitely make this again. Note: I modified the recipe a bit by adding Worcestershire sauce and liquid smoke in a container and marinaded the chicken for 20 minutes before seasoning it. I then followed another suggestion from another reviewer and pan seared the meat. I then built the sauce from the pan juices.
I followed the recipe of the sauce but doubled it and added lemon juice and green onions... I also used Tuscan marinated chicken and grilled it then made a Normandy blend of veggies with squash,carrots and broccoli and cauliflower. The combination of all three flavors was to die for. My husband said he felt like he was enjoying a meal in a restaurant.
