# How to Make It:
01 - Pat chicken thighs dry and season both sides evenly with salt and pepper.

03 - In the same skillet, add minced garlic and sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant.
04 - Incorporate sun-dried tomatoes and dried Italian herbs; stir well to combine.
05 - Pour in chicken broth and bring to a simmer while scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan.
06 - Lower heat to medium-low. Stir in heavy cream, Parmesan cheese, and crushed red pepper flakes if using. Allow to simmer for 2 to 3 minutes until slightly thickened.
07 - Return chicken thighs to the skillet, nestling them into the sauce. Cover and simmer gently for 10 to 12 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
08 - Sprinkle chopped fresh basil or parsley over the dish before serving.
