Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Prepare Chicken: In a large frying pan, heat the oil from the sun-dried tomato jar over medium-high heat. Season chicken thighs with kosher salt, black pepper, and Italian herbs. Brown the chicken for 4-5 minutes on each side, then remove from the pan.
  2. Make Sauce: Pour in the dry white wine, scraping up any bits stuck to the bottom. Reduce heat, add heavy cream and dried onion flakes. Simmer for 2-3 minutes until slightly thickened.
  3. Add Flavors: Add chopped sun-dried tomatoes and garlic cloves to the sauce, cooking for about 5 minutes until garlic softens.
  4. Combine: Return chicken thighs to the pan, reduce heat to medium-low, and simmer for 10 minutes until cooked through at 165°F.
  5. Serve: Ladle creamy garlic chicken into bowls and garnish with black pepper and chopped parsley.
