Creamy chicken served over pasta, perfect for a special meal.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 1/2 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1/4 cup sun-dried tomatoes, chopped
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 cup chicken broth
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/4 cup fresh basil, chopped
  • 8 oz pasta, cooked

Instructions

  1. Slice chicken breasts horizontally to create thinner cutlets.
  2. In a shallow dish, combine flour, salt, and pepper. Dredge chicken in the flour mixture, shaking off excess.
  3. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add chicken and cook for 4-5 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove chicken from skillet and set aside.
  4. Add sun-dried tomatoes and garlic to the skillet. Cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly.
  5. Pour in chicken broth, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan. Bring to a simmer.
  6. Stir in heavy cream and Parmesan cheese. Return chicken to the skillet and simmer for 5-7 minutes, or until the sauce thickens and the chicken is heated through.
  7. Stir in fresh basil. Serve chicken and sauce over cooked pasta.

Notes

  • Adjust the amount of sun-dried tomatoes to your preference.
  • For a spicier kick, add a pinch of red pepper flakes with the garlic.
  • This dish pairs well with a side salad or steamed vegetables.
