Cooking Instructions:

• Start by patting the chicken breasts dry with paper towels. Season both sides with salt and black pepper.
• In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the chicken breasts and sear for about 5-7 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Use a meat thermometer to ensure they reach an internal temperature of 165°F. Remove the chicken and set aside.
• In the same skillet, add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil. Add the diced onion and sauté until translucent, about 3-4 minutes. Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional minute until fragrant.
• Add the can of tomato sauce, heavy whipping cream, and grated parmesan cheese to the skillet. Stir to combine and bring to a gentle simmer. Add the Italian seasoning, and season with salt and pepper to taste.
• Return the seared chicken breasts to the skillet, spooning the sauce over them. Allow everything to simmer together for about 5 minutes, ensuring the chicken is heated through and coated in the creamy sauce.
• Just before serving, sprinkle the shredded parmesan cheese over the top of the chicken. Optionally, garnish with additional Italian seasoning. Serve warm over pasta, rice, or with crusty bread.
