📝 Ingredients:
4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
Salt & black pepper, to taste
2 tbsp olive oil
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 cup heavy cream
½ cup chicken broth
½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
½ tsp red pepper flakes (optional for heat)
½ cup sun-dried tomatoes, drained and chopped
1 tsp dried oregano
1 tsp dried thyme
Fresh basil or parsley, for garnish
👩🍳 Instructions:
1️⃣ Prepare the Chicken
Season the chicken breasts with salt and black pepper on both sides.
2️⃣ Cook the Chicken
In a large skillet, heat 2 tbsp of olive oil over medium heat. Add the chicken breasts and cook for 5-7 minutes per side, until golden brown and cooked through. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
3️⃣ Make the Creamy Sauce
In the same skillet, add the minced garlic and cook for about 1 minute, until fragrant. Add the heavy cream, chicken broth, and Parmesan cheese, stirring to combine. Bring the mixture to a simmer and cook for about 5 minutes, allowing the sauce to thicken.
4️⃣ Add Flavor
Stir in the red pepper flakes, sun-dried tomatoes, oregano, and thyme. Taste the sauce and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper if needed.
5️⃣ Return the Chicken
Return the cooked chicken breasts to the skillet, spooning the sauce over the top. Let it simmer for another 5-7 minutes, allowing the chicken to soak in the flavors and the sauce to thicken further.
6️⃣ Garnish & Serve
Garnish with fresh basil or parsley before serving. Enjoy your creamy, flavorful Marry Me Chicken with rice, pasta, or a simple side salad!
🍴 Serving Suggestions:
Serve this dish with steamed rice, garlic bread, or a green salad for a well-rounded meal. It also pairs wonderfully with pasta!
