Instructions

  1. Slice the chicken breasts in half lengthwise into cutlets. Whisk the flour, salt, and pepper and dredge the chicken, shaking off excess.

  2. Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the chicken 3 to 4 minutes per side until browned and cooked through. Transfer to a plate.

  3. Lower the heat to medium. Melt the butter, add the garlic, and cook 30 to 60 seconds. Add the stock, sun-dried tomatoes, red pepper flakes, oregano, and thyme; simmer 1 to 2 minutes.

  4. Stir in the cream and simmer 4 to 5 minutes. Add the spinach and 3/4 cup Parmesan; stir until the spinach wilts.

  5. Return the chicken to the pan and simmer 3 to 4 minutes, spooning sauce over the top. Garnish with the remaining Parmesan and basil.
