Ingredients: 

• 2/4 Chicken breast fillets.
• Salt and freshly ground black pepper.
• 2 tablespoons olive oil.
• 3 cloves garlic, minced.
• ½ cup chicken broth.
• ¾ cup double cream.
• ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese.
• ½ cup chopped sun-dried tomatoes.
• 1 teaspoon dried oregano.
• Fresh basil leaves, for garnish.

Method:

1. Prepare the Chicken: season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper.
2. Sear the chicken: in a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and sear until golden brown on both sides, about 4–5 minutes per side. Remove and set aside.
3. Create the sauce: in the same skillet, add minced garlic and sauté for 1 minute. Pour in the chicken broth, scraping up any browned bits. Stir in the double cream, Parmesan cheese, sun-dried tomatoes, and oregano. Simmer for 2–3 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly.
4. Combine and cook: return the chicken to the skillet, spooning the sauce over the top. Simmer for an additional 5–7 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through.
5. Garnish and serve: sprinkle with fresh basil leaves and serve hot. This dish pairs wonderfully with pasta, rice, mashed potatoes, or crusty bread.
