Ingredients:
4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
2 tablespoons olive oil
3 cloves garlic, minced
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
1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)
Salt and pepper to taste
Fresh basil or parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions:
Prepare the Chicken:
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper on both sides.
In a large oven-safe skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the chicken breasts and sear until golden brown, about 4-5 minutes per side. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
Make the Sauce:
In the same skillet, add the minced garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute.
Pour in the chicken broth and bring to a simmer, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the skillet.
Stir in the heavy cream, grated Parmesan cheese, sun-dried tomatoes, dried oregano, dried thyme, and red pepper flakes (if using). Bring the sauce to a gentle simmer and cook until slightly thickened, about 3-5 minutes.
Combine and Bake:
Return the chicken breasts to the skillet, spooning some of the sauce over the top.
Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the sauce is bubbling and thickened.
Serve:
Garnish with chopped fresh basil or parsley before serving. Enjoy the Marry Me Chicken over pasta, rice, or with crusty bread to soak up the delicious sauce.
