Ingredients
Scale
- 2 large boneless skinless chicken breasts
- 2 tablespoons olive oil, plus more as needed
- Salt/pepper
- 2 teaspoons italian seasoning
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- ⅓ cup flour
- ⅓ cup plain breadcrumbs
- ¾ cup dry white wine
- 5 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons tomato paste
- 28 oz. whole peeled tomatoes, preferably san marzano-style
- ½ cup chicken broth
- 1 chicken bouillon cube
- 2 teaspoons honey
- 1 teaspoon worcestershire sauce
- ½ teaspoon each: dried oregano, onion powder, mustard powder
- ¼ teaspoon red pepper flakes
- 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
- 1 cup freshly grated parmesan, divided
- 2 tablespoons cold butter
- Fresh Basil
- Fresh Parsley
Instructions
- Slice the chicken in half lengthwise to create thinner pieces and pound to ½-inch thickness.
- Pat dry, rub with oil, and season with salt, pepper, Italian seasoning, and garlic powder.
- Combine flour and breadcrumbs and dredge the chicken, ensuring even coating. Let sit to adhere better.
- Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat and sear the chicken for 4-5 minutes on each side until golden. Remove and set aside.
- Deglaze the skillet with wine over medium heat, scraping the bottom. Reduce for 2 minutes, then add tomato paste and cook for 2 additional minutes, followed by garlic for 1 minute.
- Add tomatoes with juices and crush to desired consistency. Incorporate chicken broth, bouillon, honey, Worcestershire, oregano, onion powder, mustard powder, and red pepper flakes. Bring to a boil, then reduce to simmer.
- Simmer uncovered for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally until sauce thickens. Add cherry tomatoes and simmer for another 5 minutes.
- Lower heat and stir in half the parmesan and cold butter. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper if needed.
- Return chicken to the skillet, spoon sauce over, and sprinkle with remaining parmesan. Cover and heat through for 2-3 minutes. Optionally broil in the oven for a melted finish.
- Garnish with fresh basil and parsley before serving.
