1 cup heavy cream

1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese

1 teaspoon Italian seasoning

1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes

2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped

Instructions

2. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat

3. Sear the chicken for 5–7 minutes per side until golden and fully cooked then remove and set aside

4. In the same skillet sauté minced garlic for about 30 seconds until fragrant

5. Add chopped sun-dried tomatoes and stir for 1–2 minutes

6. Pour in chicken broth and scrape the bottom of the pan to deglaze

7. Reduce heat and stir in heavy cream letting it gently simmer

8. Add Parmesan cheese Italian seasoning and red pepper flakes and stir until smooth

Notes

Use oil-packed sun-dried tomatoes for the best flavor and softer texture

Always cook the sauce on low heat after adding cream to prevent curdling

Freshly grated Parmesan melts better and creates a smoother sauce
