Ingredients:
- 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp onion powder
- 1/2 tsp paprika
- 1/2 cup sun-dried tomatoes, chopped
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1/2 cup chicken broth
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 8 oz pasta (penne, spaghetti, or your choice)
- Fresh basil, for garnish
Directions:
- Prepare the chicken: Season the chicken breasts with salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat and cook the chicken for 5-6 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
- Make the sauce: In the same skillet, add the sun-dried tomatoes, heavy cream, and chicken broth. Stir to combine and bring to a simmer. Let it cook for 3-4 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly.
- Finish the sauce: Add the Parmesan cheese and stir until the cheese melts and the sauce becomes creamy.
- Cook the pasta: While the sauce is simmering, cook the pasta according to the package directions. Drain and set aside.
- Combine: Slice the chicken into strips and add it back into the sauce. Toss the cooked pasta into the sauce, stirring to coat everything evenly.
- Serve: Garnish with fresh basil and extra Parmesan cheese, and enjoy!
