Recipe information

Make Marry Me Chicken in just 50m. Chicken breast tenderloins baked in a creamy sauce with sun-dried tomatoes, topped with parmesan, and garnished with mashed potatoes

Prepare the Chicken

1. Preheat the Oven

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

2. Sear the Chicken

In a large oven-safe skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Season the chicken tenderloins with salt and black pepper. Sear them for about 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown. Remove from the skillet and set aside.

3. Make the Sauce

In the same skillet, add minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant. Add chopped sun-dried tomatoes and stir. Pour in the heavy cream and add Italian seasoning. Stir to combine and let it simmer for 2-3 minutes.

4. Combine Chicken and Sauce

Return the seared chicken to the skillet, spooning the sauce over the top. Sprinkle grated Parmesan cheese over the chicken.

5. Bake

Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, until the chicken is cooked through and the sauce is bubbly.

Make the Mashed Potatoes

6. Boil the Potatoes

In a large pot, add diced potatoes and cover with water. Add a pinch of salt. Bring to a boil and cook for about 15-20 minutes, or until fork-tender.

7. Mash the Potatoes

Drain the potatoes and return them to the pot. Add butter, milk, salt, and black pepper. Mash until smooth and creamy.

Serve

8. Plate the Dish

Serve the chicken on a plate with a generous amount of creamy sauce. Add a serving of mashed potatoes on the side.

9. Garnish

Garnish the dish with additional grated Parmesan if desired.
