2 tablespoons olive oil
4 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
2 tablespoons dried rosemary
1 tablespoon olive oil
3 cloves garlic, minced

1 (15 ounce) can garbanzo beans, drained and rinsed

Steps:

  • Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Season the chicken with the rosemary on both sides; cook the chicken in the hot oil until browned evenly, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Remove the chicken from the pan and set aside.

Time 50m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 11

4 pounds boneless skinless chicken breasts
salt and pepper to taste
10 tablespoons butter, divided
6 cloves garlic, minced
2 teaspoons Italian seasoning
½ teaspoon red pepper flakes
1 cup dry white wine (such as Chardonnay)
2 cups chicken broth
1 ½ cups heavy whipping cream
1 cup oil-packed sun-dried tomatoes, thinly sliced
1 cup thinly sliced fresh basil

Steps:

  • Place chicken breasts in a resealable plastic bag and pound to an even thickness. If breasts are very large, cut them in half. Season lightly with salt and pepper.
  • Melt 4 tablespoons butter in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat and cook 1/2 of the chicken breasts until they are no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, 5 to 10 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Remove from skillet and set aside. Melt another 4 tablespoons butter and repeat with the remaining chicken breasts. Set aside.
  • Melt remaining 2 tablespoons butter in the same skillet and add garlic, Italian seasoning, and red pepper flakes. Cook, stirring constantly, for 1 minute. Pour in wine and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer for 2 minutes. Pour in chicken broth, return to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer for 5 minutes. Stir in cream and sun-dried tomatoes. Simmer for 5 minutes.
  • Stir in basil and return chicken to the skillet. Cook until chicken is thoroughly heated and sauce has thickened, about 5 minutes.
