Ingredients
- 2 chicken breasts
- ½ cup plain flour (all purpose flour)
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1 small onion chopped
- 1 clove garlic minced
- ⅔ cup chicken stock
- ⅔ cup thickened cream (heavy cream)
- 1 tablespoon tomato paste
- ⅓ cup grated Parmesan cheese
- ¼ teaspoon dried oregano
- ¼ teaspoon dried thyme
- ¼ teaspoon dried chilli flakes
- ⅓ cup sundried tomatoes, chopped (50 grams)
- 1 tablespoon fresh basil leaves (or 1 teaspoon dried basil)
- salt and pepper (to taste)
Instructions
- Carefully slice each chicken breast through the centre horizontally to create two flatter chicken cutlets.
- Using the smooth side of a meat mallet (or a rolling pin, a small frypan or something similar) gently pound the cutlets so they are an even thickness. You should end up with 4 chicken cutlets.
- Place the flour on a large plate and dredge (lightly coat the chicken cutlets) in flour.
- Heat oil and butter over med-high heat in a large frypan. Cook the chicken cutlets for about 4 minutes on each side, or until browned and cooked through.
- Remove the chicken from the pan and set aside.
- Add onion and garlic to pan and saute for a couple of minutes.
- Add oregano, thyme and chilli flakes and saute for 30 seconds.
- Add stock and bring to a simmer.
- Add cream and tomato paste and bring to a simmer.
- Add parmesan cheese and stir over heat to combine.
- Add sundried tomatoes and add chicken back into frypan. Season with salt and pepper. Simmer for a few minutes, spooning the mixture over the chicken.
- Rip up basil leaves with your hands and garnish before serving.
