Time 50m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 11

4 pounds boneless skinless chicken breasts
salt and pepper to taste
10 tablespoons butter, divided
6 cloves garlic, minced
2 teaspoons Italian seasoning
½ teaspoon red pepper flakes
1 cup dry white wine (such as Chardonnay)
2 cups chicken broth
1 ½ cups heavy whipping cream
1 cup oil-packed sun-dried tomatoes, thinly sliced
1 cup thinly sliced fresh basil

Steps:

  • Place chicken breasts in a resealable plastic bag and pound to an even thickness. If breasts are very large, cut them in half. Season lightly with salt and pepper.
  • Melt 4 tablespoons butter in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat and cook 1/2 of the chicken breasts until they are no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, 5 to 10 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Remove from skillet and set aside. Melt another 4 tablespoons butter and repeat with the remaining chicken breasts. Set aside.
  • Melt remaining 2 tablespoons butter in the same skillet and add garlic, Italian seasoning, and red pepper flakes. Cook, stirring constantly, for 1 minute. Pour in wine and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer for 2 minutes. Pour in chicken broth, return to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer for 5 minutes. Stir in cream and sun-dried tomatoes. Simmer for 5 minutes.
  • Stir in basil and return chicken to the skillet. Cook until chicken is thoroughly heated and sauce has thickened, about 5 minutes.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover chicken. I had some grilled chicken that I used, and it worked perfectly.

I served this dish over pasta, but I think it would also be good served over rice or quinoa.

This dish was a bit too spicy for my taste. I think I would use less chili flakes next time.

I added some mushrooms and zucchini to the skillet. It was a great way to add some extra vegetables to the dish.

I'm not a fan of sun-dried tomatoes, so I used fresh tomatoes instead. The dish was still delicious!

The chicken was a bit dry, but the sauce was flavorful. I think I would try cooking the chicken for less time next time.

This dish was a bit bland for my taste. I think it could have used more seasoning.
