Instructions

Season chicken breasts with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika.
In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Sear the chicken for 5-6 minutes per side until golden brown. Remove from skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, add minced garlic and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
Pour in chicken broth and deglaze the pan, scraping up any browned bits.
Add heavy cream, Parmesan cheese, sun-dried tomatoes, Italian seasoning, and red pepper flakes. Stir to combine and simmer for 2-3 minutes.
Return chicken to the skillet, spooning sauce over the top. Simmer uncovered for 10-15 minutes until chicken is cooked through and sauce has thickened.
Garnish with fresh basil and serve warm.

Notes

Serve over pasta, mashed potatoes, or with crusty bread to soak up the sauce.
Can be made with chicken thighs instead of breasts for more flavor.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
