Instructions
- If using chicken breasts, cut the chicken in half horizontally to form thinner cutlets. Gently pound the chicken to ¼-inch thick. Season the chicken with ½ teaspoon salt and pepper.
- In a large 12-inch skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of oil over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and cook for 2 to 3 minutes per side or until cooked through. Transfer the chicken to a plate to keep warm.
- Reduce the heat to medium and add the remaining oil. Stir in the garlic, oregano, and red pepper flakes. Cook until fragrant, about 1 minute.
- Add the crushed tomatoes, heavy cream, and remaining ¼ teaspoon salt and bring to a simmer. Let simmer uncovered for 5 minutes.
- Add the chicken to the pan along with any juices and simmer uncovered for an additional 3 to 4 minutes or until the chicken is heated through.
- Stir in the Parmesan cheese and season with additional salt and pepper to taste.
- Serve over cooked pasta if using, and garnish with Parmesan cheese and fresh basil.
Notes
- Chicken cutlets should be about ¼-inch thick.
- Nutrition information includes pasta.
