Sicilian Skillet Chicken aka Marry Me Chicken

 3 Tbs. Olive oil.                       4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts.   Kosher salt.                                       Fresh ground pepper.                             2 cloves of garlic, minced.                     1 Tbs fresh thyme leaves                      1 tsp crushed red pepper flakes.   ¾ c. chicken broth.                            ½ c. cream.                                         ½c. chopped sun-dried tomatoes.   ¼ c. fresh grated parmesan


Preheat oven to 375º. In a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat (medium or medium-low on the large burner), heat 1 Tbs. olive oil. Pat chicken dry and season generously with salt and pepper and sear until golden, 5 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate.

Return skillet to medium heat and add 2 Tbs. olive oil.  Stir in garlic, thyme and red pepper flakes, cooking until fragrant, 1 minute. Stir in broth, heavy cream, sun-dried tomatoes and parmesan and season with more salt. Bring to a simmer, then return chicken to skillet. Transfer skillet to oven and bake until chicken is cooked through and juices run clear when chicken is pierced with a knife, 10-12 minutes.
