Ingredients

Scale

6 large boneless skinless chicken breasts (cut into 12 cutlets)
1 tsp salt + ½ tsp black pepper
¾ cup all-purpose flour (or GF blend)
4 tbsp olive oil
4 tbsp unsalted butter
6 garlic cloves, minced
2 cups chicken stock
2 cups heavy cream (or half-and-half)
1 cup grated fresh Parmesan
2 tsp chili flakes (adjust to taste)
½ tsp dried oregano + ½ tsp dried thyme
⅔ cup sun-dried tomatoes, chopped (oil-packed)
2 tbsp fresh basil, torn

Instructions

1️⃣ Prep Chicken: Season cutlets well. Dredge in flour, shaking off excess.

2️⃣ Sear: In a large Dutch oven, heat 2 tbsp oil over medium-high. Sear chicken in batches, 3–4 mins per side. Transfer to a plate.

3️⃣ Build Sauce: Reduce heat. Melt butter in the same pan, sauté garlic 1 min. Pour in stock, scrape browned bits. Bring to a simmer.

4️⃣ Creamy Magic: Stir in cream, Parmesan, chili flakes, oregano, thyme, and sun-dried tomatoes. Simmer 5–7 mins until thick enough to coat a spoon.

5️⃣ Finish: Return chicken + juices to the sauce. Simmer 5 mins. Remove from heat, tear basil over top. Rest 5 mins.

Notes

✨ Sear in batches—don’t crowd!
✨ Use real sun-dried tomatoes in oil—huge flavor boost!
✨ Let the chicken rest in sauce for next-level tenderness.
