Ingredients
Scale
- 4 chicken breasts
- 1 cup sun-dried tomatoes
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 cup chicken broth
- 1 cup parmesan cheese
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh basil for garnish
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) to prepare for the baking magic that lies ahead.
- Sear the chicken in a large oven-safe skillet with olive oil, seasoning it generously with salt and pepper for about 5 minutes on each side until golden brown.
- Set the chicken aside to rest.
- Sauté the garlic in the same skillet for about 1 minute until fragrant.
- Combine the sun-dried tomatoes, chicken broth, heavy cream, parmesan, and Italian seasoning; simmer gently.
- Return the chicken to the skillet and spoon the sauce over it generously.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through (internal temperature of 165°F/74°C).
- Garnish with fresh basil before serving.
Notes
Don’t skip the searing step; it locks in flavor. You can also use low-fat cream for a lighter option.
