Description
Marry Me Chicken is a creamy garlic Parmesan chicken dish that is perfect for impressing your loved ones.
Ingredients
Scale
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 cup chicken broth
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1/2 cup sun-dried tomatoes, chopped
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 1/4 cup fresh basil, chopped
Instructions
- Start by preheating your oven to 375°F (190°C). Season each chicken breast generously with salt and pepper on both sides.
- In a large, oven-safe skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat and sear the chicken until golden-brown (about 4-5 minutes each side). Remove from skillet.
- In the same skillet, melt unsalted butter and sauté minced garlic until aromatic. Add chicken broth and scrape the skillet bottom.
- Stir in heavy cream, Parmesan cheese, sun-dried tomatoes, thyme, and oregano; let the sauce simmer to thicken.
- Return the chicken to the skillet, spoon sauce on top, and bake for 20-25 minutes until the chicken reaches 165°F (74°C).
- Garnish with fresh basil and serve warm.
Notes
Ensure chicken is at room temperature for even cooking and do not skip scraping the skillet for extra flavor.
