Ingredients
- 2 Chicken breasts
- 80 g Plain flour
- 1 tsp Salt
- 1 tsp Black pepper
- 20 g Butter
- 1 Onion diced
- 4 Cloves of garlic chopped
- 200 ml Chicken stock
- 150 ml Double cream
- 60 g Parmesan grated
- 2 tbsp Sun dried tomato paste
- 1 tsp Dried thyme
- 1 tsp Dried oregano
- 1 Bunch of fresh basil rough chopped
Instructions
- For this recipe I used 2 small chicken breasts, if you have large ones then you can cut them in half lengthways to make two fillets.
- Add the salt and pepper to the flour and mix it well. Coat the chicken in the seasoned flour and shake off any excess.
- Add a little cooking oil and the butter to a large frying pan, once it’s really hot add the chicken and cook until it is golden brown on both sides. This should take about 3-4 minutes on each side over a medium to high heat.
- Remove the chicken from the pan and just set aside. Using the same pan, fry the onion for a few minutes until it starts to soften.
- Chuck in the garlic and cook for a minute.
- Pour in the chicken stock and double cream, add the grated parmesan. Stir well, then bring to a simmer.
- Add the sun-dried tomato paste, dried thyme and dried oregano. Stir well.
- Get the chicken back into the pan, then bring to a simmer until the sauce has thickened and the chicken is cooked through.
- Taste for seasoning, then add the fresh basil.
