Description

This creamy sun-dried tomato chicken dish combines tender chicken breasts with a rich, flavorful sauce. Perfect for a delicious and healthy meal that’s easy to make!


Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 cup sun-dried tomatoes, chopped
  • 1/2 cup chicken broth
  • 1 cup heavy cream or coconut cream (for a dairy-free option)
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • Fresh basil or parsley for garnish

Instructions

  • Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper on both sides.
  • In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chicken breasts and cook for 5-7 minutes per side, until golden and cooked through. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
  • In the same skillet, add the minced garlic and chopped sun-dried tomatoes. Sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant.
  • Pour in the chicken broth and bring to a simmer, scraping any browned bits from the bottom of the skillet.
  • Stir in the heavy cream (or coconut cream) and grated Parmesan cheese. Add Italian seasoning and simmer for 5-7 minutes until the sauce has thickened slightly.
  • Return the chicken breasts to the skillet, spooning the sauce over them. Simmer for an additional 2-3 minutes to warm the chicken through.
  • Garnish with fresh basil or parsley and serve hot.

Notes

This dish pairs wonderfully with pasta, rice, or steamed vegetables. Use coconut cream for a dairy-free option!
