Marry Me Chicken is an ultra-popular main dish that wins the hearts of everyone who first tastes it.  Thus, the title “Marry Me” chicken!  Everyone falls in love with it at first bite. ❤️

When I first tried it, I found a great recipe but it had many steps.  Certainly it was well-worth the effort – the flavor was amazing – but the likelihood that I would make it often was slim-to- none.

.I love the taste but need a faster version. So, that’s what I did. I created my own.  This is the trimmed-down recipe that I use every time I make Marry Me Chicken.  It provides the dreamy flavor of the more complicated version but so much quicker and easier,  with just 6 ingredients.  I hope you like it.  If you do, let me know in the comments and please spread the good news?

1. Heat a non-stick skillet on medium to medium high heat.
2. Place 2 T salted butter into the skillet to melt. 
3. Stir the butter gently with a spatula, as it melts, to keep it from burning.
4. Place the boneless, skinless chicken breasts into the skillet.
5. Sprinkle them with 1/2 T, garlic powder.
6. Cook the chicken while turning each piece over occasionally, allowing the outsides of the chicken to get lightly browned.
7. Remove the chicken temporarily to a plate.
8. Add 2 cups heavy cream to the skillet.  
9. Sprinkle parmesan cheese on top, gently stirring. Bring to a gentle boil.
10. Add sundried tomatoes to the sauce and stir again.
11. Return the chicken to the skillet..
12. Spoon the thick sauce on top of each chicken piece.  Simmer till done.                         .

Tip:  Serve Marry Me Chicken along with side dishes, as desired. 

Today we had it with cut broccoli on the side. Other times,  I cook thin spaghetti to pile on the plate and serve with the chicken breast right on top with Marry Me Chicken sauce poured over it!  Asparagus, broccoli or even a side salad are all great choices to accompany your inspiring new main dish. 

Another Tip: Adjust the sundried tomatoes according to taste. It is a flavor that our family loves but, if you have tender tastebuds, you may want a bit less.  

How will you know that it is done? I am one of those cooks who “flies by the seat of her pants. ” In other words, I just guess  — which is not a great help to you.

So, what you can do is use a meat thermometer to test the chicken breasts as they cook.

Insert the thermometer halfway through the thickest part.  You should be aiming for a minimum of 165°F.
