This is from the 80’s
Have you ever been to Carrabba’s? It’s a great Italian Grill? It’s been around since the 80’s. My favorite meal for all these years has been Chicken Bryan. It’s a chicken breast grilled after being marinated. Adding a butter sauce with heavy cream with sun dried tomatoes with chunk of goat cheese on top.
Honestly they make it the best. You can find many copycat recipes on the internet. It will be close enough to make you smile. I’ve tried a few and they don’t disappoint.
But the butter sauce is a whole stick of butter. And heavy cream is a just not in the schedule for healthy heart.
How can you make this healthier?
  • Reduce Saturated Fat: Use olive oil instead of butter, or a blend of both. Olive oil provides healthy monounsaturated fats.
  • Swap the Cream: Replace heavy cream with low-fat, plain Greek yogurt for a creamy, probiotic-rich texture. Or use low fat milk.
  • Use Less, Spread More: Make a smaller amount of sauce. Coat instead of drown the chicken.
I opted for using 1/2 butter and a little olive oil with some regular milk. It was delicious.
Made my own mashed potatoes and olive oil dip and felt like I was eating at the restaurant. It was a bit healthier.

Enjoy! From my cucina to yours!
