For the Chicken
▢
2 large chicken breasts
▢
¾ tsp salt
▢
½ tsp black pepper
▢
½ tsp paprika
▢
2 tbsp olive oil
For the Sauce
▢
2 tbsp butter
▢
½ cup sun-dried tomatoes (in oil), sliced
▢
3 cloves garlic, minced
▢
½ cup chicken broth
▢
1 tsp Dijon mustard
▢
½ tsp dried thyme (or Italian seasoning)
▢
¼ tsp black pepper
▢
¼ tsp salt
▢
2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
▢
1 cup heavy cream
Instructions
Slice chicken breasts in half lengthwise to make thinner cutlets. Season with salt, pepper, and paprika.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook chicken about 4 minutes per side until golden. Remove and set aside.
Reduce heat to medium. Add butter, sun-dried tomatoes, and garlic. Cook about 1 minute until fragrant.
Add chicken broth, Dijon mustard, thyme, salt, parsley and pepper. Simmer for 2–3 minutes.
Stir in heavy cream and cook until the sauce becomes smooth and slightly thickened.
Return chicken to the skillet and simmer for 3–5 minutes until fully cooked.
Spoon sauce over the chicken, garnish with parsley, and serve warm.
Notes
Slice chicken evenly so it cooks at the same rate.
Use sun-dried tomatoes packed in oil for the best flavor.
If the sauce thickens too much, add a splash of chicken broth.
