Equipment

  • Dutch Oven

Ingredients
  

For The Chicken

  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 1/2 tsp smoked paprika
  • 2 tbsp olive oil or oil from sun-dried tomatoes
  • 2 tbsp butter
  • 1 tsp Italian seasoning

For The Sauce

  • 4 cloves garlic minced
  • 1/2 cup sun-dried tomatoes drained and chopped
  • 1/2 cup chicken broth
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese grated cheese
  • Fresh basil or parsley for garnish

Instructions
 

  • Heat the olive oil and butter in a Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Season the chicken breasts with salt, pepper, Italian seasoning and smoked paprika, then sear for 3-4 minutes per side until golden brown. Remove from pan and set aside.
  • In the same Dutch oven, add the garlic and sun-dried tomatoes. Saute for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
  • Pour in the chicken broth and scrape up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan. Stir in the heavy cream and Parmesan cheese.
  • Return the chicken breasts to the Dutch oven, nestling them into the sauce. Reduce the heat to low, cover and let simmer for 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken reaches 165 internally.
  • Stir the sauce well before serving. Garnish with fresh basil or parsley and serve over cauliflower rice, zucchini noodles, or roasted veggies for a delicious, low-carb meal.

Notes

Make sure to sear the chicken first- this locks in the juices and adds extra depth of flavor.
