• ½ teaspoon salt
• ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
• 6 tablespoons (50 grams) all-purpose flour
• 2 tablespoons (30 ml) olive oil
• 2 tablespoons (28 grams) unsalted butter
• 3 cloves garlic minced
• 1 cup (240 ml) chicken stock

• ½ cup (43 grams) parmesan cheese grated
• 1 teaspoon chilli flakes
• ¼ teaspoon oregano
• ¼ teaspoon thyme
• ⅓ cup sundried tomatoes chopped
• 1 tablespoon fresh basil leaves

Instructions to make Marry Me Chicken

• Season chicken with salt and pepper, then dredge in flour and shake off any excess.
• In a large skillet, heat olive oil and melt the butter on medium heat. Swirl the pan to coat it with oil and butter evenly.
• Brown the chicken (do not overcrowd and work in batches if needed) for 4-5 minutes on each side or until golden brown and cooked through. Transfer onto a plate, cover, and set aside.
• Saute the garlic for a minute or until it's fragrant. Add the chicken stock, and deglaze the pan scraping any bits stuck to the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon.
• Adjust the heat to medium-low, and add the heavy cream and the parmesan cheese to the skillet. Allow the sauce to simmer for a couple of minutes, then season with chilli flakes, thyme, and oregano.
• Season with salt and pepper to your taste, add the sundried tomatoes then put the chicken back in the sauce and let the sauce simmer and thicken for a few more minutes.
• Garnish with chopped fresh basil leaves and serve warm over pasta.
