Chicken Lazone

This recipe has become a family favorite. So much so, that my brother-in-law requested that I add it to my menu for Christmas Eve! My understanding is that it is a French dish...I love to say it. Meet the ultimate comfort food with a kick...

Chicken Lazone

2 lb chicken tenders (or thin sliced breasts, halved)

salt

1 1/2 t chili powder

1/2 t onion powder (or minced)

2 t garlic powder (or 2 cloves minced)

1/4 t cayenne pepper

1/4 c butter, divided

2 c heavy cream

In a bowl, combine salt, chili powder, onion powder, garlic powder and cayenne pepper. Sprinkle over both sides of chicken.

In large skillet, melt half the butter over med-high heat. Cook chicken until done, turning halfway through, about 8 min.

Pour in cream and remaining butter into skillet. Lower heat and simmer until sauce thickens, about 5-7 min. Serve chicken and sauce over pasta or mashed potatoes. (baked potato is good too!)
