Ingredients
Scale
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 cup sun-dried tomatoes, chopped

- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh basil for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.

- Place the chicken into the skillet, cooking until golden brown on both sides, about 5-7 minutes per side.
- Once cooked, remove the chicken from the skillet and set it aside.
