Ingredients
1.5 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
2 tablespoons olive oil
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes (optional)
1 cup chicken broth
1 cup heavy cream
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1/3 cup oil-packed sun-dried tomatoes, chopped
1/3 cup fresh basil, chopped
Instructions
Pat chicken dry and season on both sides with salt and pepper.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sear chicken for 5-7 minutes per side until golden and cooked through. Transfer to a plate.
In the same skillet, add garlic, oregano, and red pepper flakes. Cook for 30 seconds until fragrant.
Pour in chicken broth to deglaze, scraping up browned bits.
Stir in heavy cream, Parmesan, and sun-dried tomatoes. Simmer for 3-5 minutes until sauce thickens.
Return chicken to the skillet, spooning sauce over it. Warm through for 1 minute.
Turn off heat and stir in fresh basil. Serve immediately.
Notes
For a lighter sauce, half-and-half can replace heavy cream, though it will be less rich. Ensure your chicken broth is gluten-free if needed. The sauce will thicken as it sits; thin it with a splash of broth when reheating.
