“Marry Me Chicken” is a popular dish known for its creamy, flavorful sauce that typically includes ingredients like garlic, sun-dried tomatoes, and herbs. Here’s a simple recipe to make it:

Ingredients:

  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 5 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 cup chicken broth
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 1/2 cup sun-dried tomatoes, chopped
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1 teaspoon dried basil
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions:

  1. Season both sides of the chicken breasts with salt and pepper.
  2. In a large skillet, heat olive oil and butter over medium-high heat.
  3. Add the chicken breasts to the skillet and cook until golden brown on both sides and cooked through, about 6-7 minutes per side. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
  4. In the same skillet, add minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant.
  5. Pour in the chicken broth and scrape up any browned bits from the bottom of the skillet.
  6. Stir in the heavy cream, sun-dried tomatoes, oregano, and basil. Bring the mixture to a simmer.
  7. Return the chicken breasts to the skillet, spooning some of the sauce over the top.
  8. Sprinkle grated Parmesan cheese over the chicken and sauce.
  9. Cover the skillet and let it simmer for another 2-3 minutes until the sauce has slightly thickened and the chicken is heated through.
  10. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley before serving.

Serve the Marry Me Chicken hot with your choice of side dishes, such as rice, pasta, or vegetables. Enjoy your delicious meal!
