Ingredients


  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon red pepper flakes (adjust to taste)
  • 1 cup chicken broth
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese
  • 1/2 cup sun-dried tomatoes, chopped
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1 tablespoon fresh basil, chopped (optional for garnish)

Cooking Instructions


  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Season the chicken breasts with salt and black pepper on both sides.
  3. In a large oven-safe skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat.
  4. Sear the chicken breasts for 4-5 minutes on each side until they are golden brown. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set it aside.
  5. In the same skillet, add the minced garlic and red pepper flakes. Sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant.
  6. Pour in the chicken broth, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the skillet.
  7. Stir in the heavy cream, parmesan cheese, sun-dried tomatoes, oregano, and thyme. Bring the mixture to a simmer.
  8. Return the chicken breasts to the skillet, spooning some of the sauce over the top.
  9. Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
  10. Remove from the oven and let the chicken rest for a few minutes. Garnish with fresh basil if desired.
  11. Serve the chicken with the creamy sauce over your favorite side, such as pasta, rice, or vegetables.
