CHICKEN IN SUN-DRIED
TOMATO SAUCE
This is along the lines of “Marry Me Chicken” but since I
didn’t have all the ingredients on hand, this is my version of the famous dish. It was amazingly delicious is all I can say. My husband enjoying his dinner said that he
would gladly marry me again, but let’s not count that I have married the same
man 3 times. We never separated; that
wasn’t the issue. It was just when
moving countries, things got complicated and we had to keep getting remarried
for the paper work. Our South African
papers were lost and in Canada they refused to marry us as
they said we could be brother and sister? Seriously!
Anyway, to cut a long story short, we got married in Montana with the justice of the peace .
When we arrived in Panama ,
they messed up the paperwork and it looked to the authorities that we were
single again. Unbelievable! We had to get married again in Panama . True story!!
Please note: The vegetables on the dinner plate are an example of maintenance-style low-carbing.
2 large chicken breasts, OR
4 smaller ones
1 tsp Montreal Chicken seasoning (5 mL)
1/2

2 tbsp butter (30 mL)
Sun-Dried Tomato Sauce:

1 tsp dried basil (5 mL)
1/2

large chicken breasts in half as if you were going to stuff them, but continue

In large skillet, in melted butter, cook chicken 4 minutes on both sides
over medium heat.

(75 mL) sun-dried tomatoes and garlic briefly until garlic is turning light
brown. Add water, heavy cream, cream

low heat until chicken is cooked through.
Sprinkle with reserved 1 tbsp (15 mL) sun-dried tomatoes and parsley.
Helpful Hint: You can use kitchen scissors to cut the
sun-dried tomatoes.
