Ingredients

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  • In a cast iron skillet add olive oil over medium-high heat.
  • Add chicken and season with salt and pepper. Sear until golden for about 3 minutes per side. Set the chicken aside.
  • In the same skillet, add garlic, thyme, and crushed red pepper flakes and let cook until fragrant for about 1 minute.
  • Add chicken broth, heavy cream, sun-dried tomatoes, and Parmesan and season with a little bit of salt. Please, be careful with the salt since Parmesan is already salty.
  • Bring to a simmer, then return chicken to skillet and place the skillet in the over.
  • Bake for 15 minutes or until chicken is fully cooked through and gets an internal temperature of 165ºF.
  • Garnish with fresh parsley before serving.

Notes

  • Recipe adapted from Delish.com.
  • Click HERE to watch the web story. 
  • Make sure you pat dry your chicken first. The moisture will make it difficult for your skin to crisp up when you sear the chicken.
  • If you do not have a cast iron skillet, use a regular skillet. Just transfer the chicken and sauce to a casserole dish to bake in the oven.
  • I recommend grating your own parmesan cheese for best results.
  • To store: Store leftover parmesan chicken in an airtight container for up to 4 days in the fridge. 
  • To reheat: You can reheat in the microwave or on the stovetop when ready to eat. 
  • To freeze: Freeze the cooked chicken in a freezer-safe bag or container for up to 3 months.
