📝 Preparation Steps

Heat a large skillet (12-inch works well) over medium heat. Season your chicken breasts generously with salt and pepper.

Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in the pan, then add the chicken breasts. Sear the chicken for a total of about ⏱️ 10 minutes, flipping them halfway through. Remember: The chicken won't be cooked through at this point, that's okay!

Set the browned chicken aside on a plate. Add the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter to the pan along with the chopped garlic and fresh thyme leaves. Cook for a minute or two, stirring often, until fragrant.

Now, pour in the chicken broth, chopped sun-dried tomatoes, heavy cream, and grated Parmesan cheese. Stir everything together to combine and bring the mixture to a simmer.

Nestle the seared chicken breasts back into the simmering sauce in the skillet. Carefully transfer the entire skillet to a preheated oven set to 400°F (204°C). Bake for an additional ⏱️ 10 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through.
