A creamy, dreamy chicken dish featuring sun-dried tomatoes and parmesan cheese, perfect for date nights or family dinners.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 Chicken breasts
  • 2 tablespoons Olive oil
  • Salt to taste
  • Black pepper to taste
  • 3 cloves Garlic, minced
  • 1 cup Heavy cream
  • 1/2 cup Chicken broth
  • 1/2 cup Sun-dried tomatoes, chopped
  • 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
  • 1 teaspoon Dried herbs
  • Fresh basil for garnish

Instructions

  1. Prepare the chicken: Start by patting the chicken breasts dry with paper towels. Season both sides generously with salt and black pepper to enhance flavor.
  2. Cook the chicken: In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the seasoned chicken breasts and cook for 8-10 minutes on each side, until golden brown. Once cooked, set the chicken aside on a plate.
  3. Sauté the garlic: In the same skillet, add a splash of oil from the sun-dried tomatoes. Then, sauté the minced garlic for about a minute until it becomes fragrant.
  4. Make the creamy sauce: Pour in the heavy cream and chicken broth. Stir in the chopped sun-dried tomatoes, dried herbs, and grated Parmesan cheese. Mix everything together until the sauce is smooth and creamy.
  5. Simmer the chicken: Return the chicken to the skillet, spooning the creamy sauce over the top. Cover the skillet and let it simmer on medium-low heat for about 10 minutes, ensuring the chicken cooks through and the sauce thickens.
  6. Garnish and serve: Finally, give your dish a fresh touch by garnishing with chopped basil. Serve warm and enjoy!

Notes

For extra juiciness, you can substitute chicken thighs for breasts. This dish pairs well with rice or pasta.
