Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 ½ lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts

  • 12 oz pasta (penne, fettuccine, or your favorite)

  • 1 cup chicken broth

  • 1 cup heavy cream

  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese

  • 1/2 cup sun-dried tomatoes, chopped

  • 3 garlic cloves, minced

  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil

  • Salt & pepper to taste

Instructions

 

  1. Cook pasta according to package directions. Drain and set aside.

  2. Season chicken breasts with salt and pepper on both sides.

  3. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add chicken and cook for about 5–7 minutes per side, until golden brown and cooked through. Remove from skillet and set aside.

  4. In the same skillet, lower heat to medium and add minced garlic. Cook for about 30 seconds until fragrant.

  5. Stir in chicken broth, heavy cream, Parmesan cheese, sun-dried tomatoes, and Italian seasoning. Let it simmer for 3–4 minutes until slightly thickened.

  6. Slice the cooked chicken and return it to the skillet. Simmer in the sauce for another 2–3 minutes.

  7. Toss the cooked pasta with the sauce and chicken until well coated.

  8. Garnish with fresh basil or parsley if desired, and serve warm!
