Instructions
Instructions
Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Season chicken breasts with salt and pepper. Cook for 5-7 minutes per side until golden and cooked through. Transfer to a plate.
Add remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil, garlic, thyme, and crushed red pepper flakes. Sauté about 1 minute until fragrant.
Pour in chicken broth and bring to a simmer to reduce slightly.
Add sun-dried tomatoes and heavy cream. Simmer for 5-7 minutes until sauce thickens.
Return chicken and spoon sauce over top. Simmer 5 more minutes. Garnish with basil and Parmesan before serving.
Notes
Store leftovers in the fridge up to 4 days. Freeze for longer storage and reheat gently to keep sauce consistency.
