Instructions

  1. Prepare Chicken: Season chicken breasts with salt and pepper. In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat and sear chicken until golden, about 5 minutes on each side. Remove chicken from skillet and set aside.
  2. Make Sauce: In the same skillet, add minced garlic and sauté for 1 minute. Pour in heavy cream, chicken broth, and sun-dried tomatoes. Bring to a simmer.
  3. Combine and Cook: Return the chicken to the skillet. Sprinkle over Italian seasoning, red pepper flakes, and grated Parmesan. Let it simmer until the chicken is cooked through and the sauce thickens, about 15 minutes.
  4. Final Touch: Stir in chopped basil and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper before serving.

Serve this flavorful chicken with pasta or bread to soak up the creamy sauce. Enjoy your romantic meal!
