Kevin's Favorite Gouda Chicken

4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
1-2 onions (yellow, red, or white), julienne cut
3-4 cloves garlic, chopped
EVOO (extra virgin olive oil)
1 cup flour
2 tsp salt
1 Tbsp pepper
1 cup heavy cream
4 oz Gouda cheese (any cheese of your choice works just the same)

Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Remove any fat from the chicken breasts. Place them into a zip lock bag and pound them until they are equal in thickness. Heat a large skillet. Add 1-2 Tbsp. EVOO. Add your onions and garlic. Saute over medium heat until well caramelized. Remove onions and garlic from the pan and set to the side. Dredge the chicken breasts in a mixture of flour and salt & pepper until all sides are coated with the flour mixture. In your well heated skillet add 2-3 Tbsp EVOO. Place your chicken breasts into the pan. Immediately take two forks and poke them all over creating holes throughout entire breast. Saute them until well browned on one side. Flip them over and quickly add your onion and garlic mixture, heavy cream, and cheese. Cover with a lid and place in preheated oven for approximately 20 minutes. The chicken will be melt in your mouth amazing!
