Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons olive oil, divided
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- Sea or Himalayan pink salt, to taste
- Simply Organic® Black Pepper, to taste
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/2 teaspoon Simply Organic® Crushed Red Pepper
- 1 1/2 teaspoons Simply Organic® Italian Seasoning
- 2/3 cup chopped sun-dried tomatoes
- 3/4 cup chicken broth
- 2/3 cup heavy cream
- 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese
- Fresh basil, for serving
Directions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- In a large oven-proof skillet, heat 1 tablespoon olive oil over medium heat. Season chicken breasts with salt and pepper on both sides. Add chicken to skillet and sear for 3 to 4 minutes per side, until browned. Remove from pan and set aside.
- Add remaining olive oil to skillet and reduce heat to medium-low. Add garlic, red pepper flakes and Italian seasoning, and cook for 1 minute, until fragrant.
- Add sun-dried tomatoes, chicken broth, heavy cream and Parmesan, and stir well. Bring to a simmer and cook for 2 to 3 minutes. Remove from heat.
- Return chicken to skillet, place in oven and cook for about 10 minutes, until chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees.
- Remove skillet from oven. If sauce needs further thickening, place on stove over medium-high heat and simmer for 2 to 3 minutes.
- Spoon sauce over chicken and garnish with fresh basil before serving.
