For the sauce

3 cloves garlic, minced
½ cup sun-dried tomatoes in oil, drained and roughly chopped
½ tsp dried thyme
1 cup low-sodium chicken broth
1 cup heavy cream
½ cup freshly grated parmesan cheese

For serving

¼ cup fresh basil leaves, torn

Instructions

1
Pat the chicken breasts dry with paper towels. In a small bowl, stir together the salt, black pepper, garlic powder, oregano, and red pepper flakes, then season both sides of each breast evenly with the mixture.
2
Heat the olive oil in a 12-inch skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering. Add the chicken breasts and sear undisturbed for 4–5 minutes, until the undersides are deep golden and release easily from the pan. Flip and sear the second side for 3–4 minutes until golden. Transfer the chicken to a plate — it will not be cooked through yet.
