- 1 cup chicken broth
- 1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese

Instructions
- Begin by heating a large skillet over medium heat. Season the chicken breasts generously with salt and pepper.

- Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer, then return the chicken to the skillet.
- Sprinkle parmesan cheese over the top and cook for another 10-15 minutes until the chicken is fully cooked and the sauce has thickened nicely.
- Serve your Marry Me Chicken garnished with fresh basil to add a hint of color and freshness.
Notes
Searing the chicken properly enhances flavor. Adjust seasoning as needed. Prep ingredients ahead for quicker cooking.
