# Steps to Follow:
01 -
Flatten chicken to roughly half an inch thick. Toss it with oil and all the seasonings inside a bag. Leave it to marinate for half an hour.
02 -
In a pan with oil, cook chicken on medium-high heat for 7-9 minutes on each side. Remove, let it sit, then slice.
03 -
Warm butter with cream and half-and-half until it's bubbling gently (not boiling!). Stir in cheeses and garlic powder till it's creamy.
04 -
Prepare tortellini as the package says. Toss it with the sauce in an oven-friendly dish.
05 -
Lay chicken slices over the tortellini. Sprinkle breadcrumbs and Mozzarella on top. Broil for a couple of minutes till the cheese melts and turns golden.
# Additional Notes:
01 -
Grating your own cheese works best for super smooth results.
02 -
Keep a close eye while broiling so it doesn’t burn.
03 -
After cooking, let the chicken rest to keep it juicy when sliced.
