Creating Sun-Dried Tomato Chicken is an easy process when you follow these steps:
1. Prepare the Chicken: Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper on both sides.
2. Heat the Oil: In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat.
3. Cook the Chicken: Add the chicken breasts to the skillet and cook for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and cooked through. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
4. Sauté Garlic: In the same skillet, add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute, being careful not to burn it.
5. Add Sun-Dried Tomatoes: Stir in the chopped sun-dried tomatoes and cook for another minute.
6. Pour in the Cream: Add the heavy cream and chicken broth to the skillet, stirring to combine. Bring the mixture to a simmer.
7. Season the Sauce: Sprinkle in the Italian seasoning, and adjust the salt and pepper to taste.
8. Return Chicken to Skillet: Place the cooked chicken breasts back into the skillet, allowing them to soak up the delicious sauce for about 5 minutes.
9. Add Parmesan Cheese: Sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese over the chicken and sauce, stirring gently until it melts and incorporates into the sauce.
10. Garnish and Serve: Remove from heat, garnish with fresh basil, and serve immediately.
