Sun Dried Tomato Chicken, also known as Marry Me Chicken, is a creamy, savory dish featuring tender chicken cutlets, sun-dried tomatoes, and a flavorful sauce made with white wine, garlic, and spinach. It’s a quick and easy recipe that’s perfect for weeknight dinners or special occasions.
Ingredients
- Chicken Cutlets: 4 cutlets
- Sun Dried Tomatoes: 1/4 cup, chopped
- Garlic: 3 cloves, minced
- Spinach: 2 cups, fresh
- Heavy Cream: 1 cup
- White Wine: 1/2 cup
- Parmesan Cheese: 1/4 cup, grated
- Olive Oil: 2 tablespoons
- Salt: to taste
- Pepper: to taste
Instructions
- Season the chicken cutlets with salt and pepper. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once the oil is hot, add the chicken and cook for 3-4 minutes per side until golden brown. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
- In the same skillet, add garlic and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
- Deglaze the pan with white wine, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom. Simmer for 2-3 minutes to reduce the wine slightly.
- Lower the heat and add heavy cream and Parmesan cheese. Stir to combine.
- Add sun-dried tomatoes and spinach, cooking until the spinach wilts.
- Return the chicken to the skillet, spooning the sauce over the top. Simmer for an additional 5-7 minutes until the chicken is cooked through and the sauce thickens.
- Serve immediately with your favorite side dish.
Notes
- Ensure the internal temperature of the chicken reaches 165°F (74°C).
- For a dairy-free version, replace heavy cream with coconut milk.
- If you prefer a thicker sauce, let it simmer longer, but do not overcook the chicken.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
