A romantic and easy weeknight dish featuring juicy chicken in a creamy parmesan sauce with sun-dried tomatoes and garlic.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1 cup parmesan cheese, grated
  • 1/2 cup sun-dried tomatoes, chopped
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh basil for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  1. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper. Add them to the pan and cook until nicely browned, about 5-7 minutes per side. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
  2. In the same skillet, add the minced garlic and sautรฉ for 1 minute until fragrant. Then, stir in the chopped sun-dried tomatoes and cook for an additional minute.
  3. Pour in the heavy cream, letting it reach a gentle simmer. Gradually stir in the grated parmesan cheese until it melts and the sauce thickens.
  4. Return the browned chicken to the skillet, spooning the creamy sauce over each piece. Allow everything to simmer together for another 3-5 minutes, ensuring the chicken is cooked through.
  5. Serve your delicious chicken hot, garnished with fresh basil if desired.

Notes

For added flavor, marinate the chicken with herbs and spices for an hour before cooking.
