Ingredients
4 chicken breasts, cut into large bite-sized pieces
3 tablespoons butter
2 garlic cloves, minced
2 cups organic chicken broth
1/3 cup sundried tomatoes packed in oil, julienne cut
1/2 cup organic heavy cream
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
10 fresh basil leaves, finely chopped
Directions
Season the chicken pieces evenly with salt, black pepper, and oregano.
Melt butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the seasoned chicken pieces and sear until golden on all sides, approximately 5 minutes total, until the internal temperature reaches 165°F. Do not overcrowd the pan; work in batches if necessary.
Reduce heat to medium. Add minced garlic to the pan and stir constantly for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Pour the chicken broth into the pan, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom. Add the sun-dried tomatoes and stir to combine.
Simmer for 3 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
Stir in the heavy cream and Parmesan cheese until the cheese is fully melted and the sauce is smooth.
Remove from heat and fold in the fresh basil leaves just before serving.
