Instructions

Cut the chicken breasts in half lengthwise. Try to cut them so all four pieces will be relatively the same size.
On a plate, combine the flour and breadcrumbs. Coat the chicken in the mixture.
In a large pan, add the butter and olive oil over medium heat. Once butter is melted, add the chicken.
Cook each side for 4-5 minutes until the chicken is cooked through. Check by cutting the largest piece in half and see if any pink remains.
Remove the chicken from the pan, but continue using the pan.
Add the garlic and chopped sun-dried tomatoes. Cook for one minute.
Stir in the stock, heavy whipping cream, Italian seasoning, and red pepper flakes. Cook for 2 minutes.
Now whisk in the grated Parmesan cheese to thicken the sauce.
Add the chicken back into the pan and top with fresh herbs.
Serve with toasted bread, pasta, or a salad.

Notes

Breadcrumbs is an ingredient I usually have in my pantry, but if you don't and you don't want to buy it for only the 2 tablespoons this recipe calls for, you can simply use a little more all-purpose flour for breading the chicken instead.
