A deliciously creamy Parmesan chicken dish, accented by sun-dried tomatoes and garlic, perfect for cozy dinners or special celebrations.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 chicken breasts
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon dried Italian herbs
  • 1/2 cup sun-dried tomatoes, chopped
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Olive oil for cooking
  • Fresh basil for garnish

Instructions

  1. In a large skillet over medium heat, warm about 2 tablespoons of olive oil.
  2. Sprinkle salt and pepper over the chicken breasts. Place them in the skillet and cook for 5-7 minutes on each side until golden brown. Remove the chicken and set it aside.
  3. In the same skillet, add minced garlic and sauté for about a minute until fragrant; be careful not to burn it!
  4. Pour in the heavy cream and bring it to a gentle simmer. Stir in the grated Parmesan cheese until melted and well-mixed into a creamy sauce.
  5. Mix in the chopped sun-dried tomatoes and dried Italian herbs, stirring well into the sauce.
  6. Place the chicken back into the skillet and let it simmer for another 10 minutes, ensuring it’s cooked through and nicely coated in the sauce.
  7. Serve hot, garnishing with fresh basil leaves.

Notes

For a lighter dish, substitute heavy cream with half-and-half or nutritional yeast for a vegan alternative to Parmesan. Serve with mashed potatoes or pasta for a complete meal.
