Equipment

Ingredients

  • 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 tsp olive oil
  • 3 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 cup chicken broth
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1/2 cup sun-dried tomatoes chopped
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 tsp Italian seasoning
  • Fresh basil leaves chopped, for garnish

Instructions

  • Prepare the Chicken: Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper on both sides.
  • Sear the Chicken: Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken breasts and sear them for about 5-6 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and mostly cooked through. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set it aside.
  • Make the Sauce: In the same skillet, add the garlic and sauté for about 1 minute, or until fragrant. Add the chicken broth to deglaze the skillet, scraping any browned bits from the bottom.
  • Add the Cream and Tomatoes: Pour in the heavy cream and stir in the sun-dried tomatoes. Let the sauce simmer for a few minutes.
  • Add the Parmesan and Seasonings: Stir in the Parmesan cheese and Italian seasoning. Continue to cook until the sauce thickens slightly.
  • Combine Chicken and Sauce: Return the chicken to the skillet, spooning some of the sauce over the top. Let the chicken simmer in the sauce for 5-10 minutes, until it's fully cooked and the sauce is thickened.
  • Serve and Garnish: Serve the chicken with the creamy sauce over pasta, rice, or vegetables. Garnish with chopped basil
