Tender chicken simmered in a rich, Whole30-friendly creamy sauce with sun-dried tomatoes, garlic, and herbs — perfect for a cozy dinner or meal prep.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 large chicken breasts (or 4 thighs), boneless & skinless

  • 1/2 tsp salt

  • 1/4 tsp black pepper

  • 2 tbsp olive oil or ghee

  • 3 cloves garlic, minced

  • 1/2 yellow onion, diced

  • 1/3 cup sun-dried tomatoes, sliced (Whole30 compliant)

  • 1 cup full-fat coconut milk or cashew cream

  • 1/2 cup chicken broth (no sugar or additives)

  • 1 tsp dried Italian herbs

  • 1/4 tsp red pepper flakes (optional)

  • Fresh basil or parsley, chopped

Instructions

  1. Season chicken with salt and pepper.

  2. Sear in hot skillet with oil, 4–5 mins per side. Remove and set aside.

  3. In same pan, sauté onion and garlic until soft. Add sun-dried tomatoes.

  4. Pour in broth and coconut milk. Stir in herbs and red pepper flakes.

  5. Simmer 3–5 mins, then return chicken to pan.

  6. Cook another 5–7 mins until chicken is cooked through.

  7. Garnish with fresh herbs and serve warm.

Notes

Great over mashed cauliflower, spaghetti squash, or sautéed greens. Store leftovers in fridge up to 4 days. Use cashew cream for a coconut-free option.
