Instructions

Prepare the chicken

Season the chicken breasts with salt and black pepper on both sides.

Pro tip: Ensure the chicken is at room temperature before cooking for even cooking.

Sear the chicken

Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and sear for 5-6 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through. Remove from the skillet and set aside.

Pro tip: Do not overcrowd the pan; sear chicken in batches if necessary.

Prepare the sauce base

In the same skillet, reduce heat to medium and add garlic. Sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant.

Make the sauce

Stir in chicken broth and sun-dried tomatoes. Simmer for 2 minutes.

Pro tip: Use a wooden spoon to scrape up any browned bits from the skillet for extra flavour.

Finish the sauce

Add heavy cream and Parmesan cheese to the skillet. Stir until the cheese has melted and the sauce is smooth. Add Italian seasoning and simmer for 5 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly.

Pro tip: Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper to taste.

Combine chicken and sauce

Return the chicken to the skillet, spooning sauce over the top. Simmer for 2-3 minutes more to heat through.

Pro tip: Ensure the chicken is well coated with the sauce before serving.
