Chicken Lazone – ready in 15 minutes – no prep required! We made this 3 days in a row! Chicken seasoned with salt, chili powder, onion powder, garlic powder, and cayenne then simmered in butter and heavy cream. Seriously THE BEST!!!

Pin This RecipeThis dish is SO delicious. I’ve had this recipe bookmarked for years, but I never got around to making it. I am kicking myself for not trying this sooner. It is SOOOOO GOOD! The best part of this dish is that it is incredibly simple to make. It requires not marinating or prep. Just sprinkle the seasoning on the chicken, cook and add cream. It takes about 15 minutes total. You can’t beat that! I like to serve this over angel hair pasta, but it would also be good with mashed potatoes. Next time we are going to try a combination of half chicken and half andouille sausage. I can’t wait!

Sounds wonderful but am faced with the same ol' dilemma…
needing an alternative for the cream.
Fat free half and half separates when it gets hot. What else is lower in fat and cholesterol?
Also a cauliflower puree Alfredo sauce is amazing with this dish, have a couple of diabetics in the family. So I substitute all the time.
You can use plain yogurt! I use that in a lot of sauces.
This looks sooo good! Thanks!
Can't wait to make this one!
Judy – the sauce won't thicken as much if you use half-and-half. You can add a little flour to help it thicken up or just have a thinner sauce. Either way it will be delicious! Enjoy!
Use corn starch and water.
Do u use just water and cornstarch or???
do you have to use all cream or could you use half and half or a combination of the two?
Ah ha ! I knew I saw 'green' ! It's going on the menu for this weekend. I'm already getting hungry!
Thanks for the quick response.
Denise – I just sprinkled a little parsley on the chicken before I took the pictures. Hope you enjoy it!
I’ve made this recipe for years now but haven’t got around to commenting. Just wanted to share with everyone how amazing it is! My kids love it and it’s definitely a staple in our house. I love that it only takes 15-20 minutes to cook. We have it at least once or twice a month and use spaghetti noodles. I also chop up the chicken and cook it that way. It’s just easier with small children.
I meant garlic powder with parsley !
I think I am seeing specks of green in this dish but can't find anything with green in any of the seasonings listed. Am I wrong ? Did you use garlic with parsley powder ? Looks delish, though, but before I try this out, I'd like the answer ?? Thanks.
It looks to me as though there is some dry parsley sprinkled on top at the end.
It looks delicious and I can imagine the great taste.
Love easy peasy recipes like this. And I may or may not be drooling a little. Thanks!
you like dr who?
I’ve made this maybe 20 times now.Its fabulous.Its a staple in my house.Ive done it with breasts and boneless thighs
I make this often, and it’s always a hit! I only wish I could figure out how to serve it to guests without me plating their food. If I put the spaghetti in a big dish with the chicken and sauce on top of it, the pasta is going to soak up all of the sauce. Anyone have any suggestions?
Oh. My. Blog. This looks insanely good! I can't wait to try it!
Sandy – I just regular chili powder – that is what it says on the jar. Enjoy!
Angela – I didn't think it was hot, but you can leave out the cayenne if you think it might be too hot. Enjoy!
What kind of chile powder? There is an infinite variety of them – type of chile, heat, etc. (Some even say chile powder when meaning hot pepper, i.e. cayenne). Thanks!
We used ancho chile and it was a home run. Wasn't as much heat as I had expected. We'll use a little more cayennne on the next try. Awesome and simple little recipe!
Looks delish! How is the heat factor? Think kiddos could handle it?
In my opinion it wasnt that spicy. All my kids loved it and they range in age from 5 to 11 yrs old. Hope that helps!
