Cook Chicken: Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Season the chicken with salt and pepper and cook in the skillet for about 3 minutes on each side until the chicken is seared and fully cooked. Remove the chicken and set it aside.
Cook Mushrooms: Add the sun-dried tomato oil to the skillet with the onion, garlic, and mushrooms, and cook until tender.
Add Tomatoes & Seasonings: Stir in the sun-dried tomatoes, fire-roasted tomatoes, parmesan cheese, salt, pepper, oregano, and thyme.
Simmer and Serve: Place the chicken back into the skillet and cook until the sauce is bubbling. Remove from heat, then add salt and pepper as needed. Garnish with chopped basil.
Alyssa’s Pro Tip
How to know when the chicken is done: Look for the juices to run clear, or use a meat thermometer to be sure you have perfectly cooked chicken. The internal temperature should be 165 degrees.
