Step 1

Put the flour on a plate and season with salt and freshly ground black pepper. Coat the chicken in the flour.

Step 2

Heat 2 tbsp of the sundried tomato oil in a large, lidded frying pan over a medium heat and fry the chicken for 8-10 mins until golden all over, but not cooked through. Set the chicken aside on a plate.

Step 3

Drizzle the remaining 1 tbsp sundried tomato oil into the pan and reduce the heat to medium-low. Fry the onion for 8-10 mins until softened but not golden. Stir in the garlic and cook for another minute before adding the sundried tomatoes, chilli and thyme or oregano, stirring well.

Step 4

Add the chicken back to the pan, then pour over the cream and chicken stock, and season well. Put the lid on the pan and cook on medium-low for about 20 mins, turning the chicken halfway through until it is cooked through and the sauce has thickened a little. Stir in the parmesan, then serve with a scattering of basil leaves and lemon wedges on the side for squeezing over, if you like.
