Chicken Cutlets with Sun-Dried Tomato Cream Sauce (Marry Me Chicken)

Searing chicken cutlets in sun-dried tomato oil creates a golden crust, then a silky pan sauce of wine, cream, shallots, and slivered tomatoes cloaks each piece. The rich sauce clings with sweet tomato depth and a whisper of herbs.

Ingredients

  • 1 lb chicken cutlets
  • 1/4 tsp salt, divided
  • 1/4 tsp ground pepper, divided
  • 1/2 cup slivered oil-packed sun-dried tomatoes, plus 1 tablespoon oil from the jar
  • 1/2 cup finely chopped shallots
  • 1/2 cup dry white wine
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 2 tbsp chopped fresh parsley

Instructions

  1. Sprinkle chicken with 1/8 teaspoon each salt and pepper. Heat sun-dried tomato oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the chicken and cook, turning once, until browned and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part registers 165°F, about 6 minutes total. Transfer to a plate.
  2. Add sun-dried tomatoes and shallots to the pan. Cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Increase heat to high and add wine. Cook, scraping up any browned bits, until the liquid has mostly evaporated, about 2 minutes. Reduce heat to medium and stir in cream, any accumulated juices from the chicken and the remaining 1/8 teaspoon each salt and pepper; simmer for 2 minutes. Return the chicken to the pan and turn to coat with the sauce. Serve the chicken topped with the sauce and parsley.
