A creamy and flavorful chicken dish with sun-dried tomatoes and herbs, perfect for special occasions or weeknight dinners.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 lb chicken thigh fillet
  • 2 tbsp sun-dried tomato oil
  • 2 large cloves garlic (minced)
  • ½ cup sun-dried tomatoes
  • 2 tbsp tomato paste
  • ½ tbsp Italian seasoning
  • 1 tsp dried oregano
  • 1 cup vegetable broth (or chicken broth)
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • ¼ cup fresh parsley (coarsely chopped)
  • Salt and pepper (to taste)

Instructions

  1. In a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat, warm 1 tablespoon of sun-dried tomato oil. Season the chicken thighs with salt and pepper, then sauté for 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
  2. Lower the heat to low, add the remaining tablespoon of sun-dried tomato oil, and toss in the minced garlic. Sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant.
  3. Pour in the broth to deglaze the pan, scraping up the flavorful browned bits that cling to the bottom.
  4. Increase the heat to medium and stir in the heavy cream, Italian seasoning, dried oregano, sun-dried tomatoes, and tomato paste. Mix everything until well combined.
  5. Return the cooked chicken to the skillet, gently tossing it to coat in the sauce.
  6. Once the sauce begins to bubble, reduce the heat to low. Let it simmer for about 10 minutes until the chicken’s internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
  7. Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper as needed to achieve the perfect flavor.
  8. Finish with chopped fresh parsley and serve immediately.

Notes

For added versatility, you can swap chicken thighs for chicken breasts or use gluten-free broth. Marinating in sun-dried tomato oil before cooking enhances flavor.
