Ingredients

• 4-6 chicken thighs (I used boneless skinless), or 4 chicken breasts pounded to even thickness
• 2 tablespoons butter
• 3 teaspoons minced garlic
• 2 teaspoons Italian seasoning OR 1/2 teaspoon each dried basil, dried oregano, dried thyme
• 1/2 cup juliened sun dried tomatoes, (they come in a jar packed with oil, be sure to drain excess oil)
• 1 cup chicken broth
• 1/2 cup half and half, or heavy cream (use heavy cream for a thicker, creamier sauce!)
• 2/3 cup shaved or shredded parmesan cheese (or more to taste) + 1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese for topping
• fresh basil or thyme, for topping
• salt and pepper, to taste (I use about 1 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper)

Instructions

1. In a large skillet over medium heat, melt butter. Add chicken and cook for 5-7 minutes on each side until browned and cooked through. Transfer to a platter and cover to keep warm while you make the sauce.
2. Add garlic, Italian seasoning, sun dried tomatoes, chicken broth, half and half or heavy cream, and 2/3 cup parmesan cheese to pan and stir to combine. Bring to a boil, and continue to stir periodically until thickened and creamy (5-7 minutes).
3. Return chicken to pan and spoon the sauce over the chicken. Top with cracked black pepper, grated parmesan cheese, fresh thyme or basil, and serve.
