Marry Me Chicken is a creamy, flavorful dish that combines tender, seared chicken breasts with a rich sun-dried tomato parmesan sauce. Originating as a modern American comfort food recipe, it's often prepared with heavy cream, garlic, dried herbs like basil and thyme, and chicken broth to enhance the savory taste. The dish gets its romantic name from its reputation for being so delicious it might inspire a marriage proposal! Nutrition-wise, the chicken provides lean protein, while the sun-dried tomatoes add a dose of antioxidants and vitamins like C and K. However, its creamy sauce, often made with heavy cream and parmesan cheese, can be high in saturated fats and calories, making portion control important. To lighten it up, ingredients like low-fat cream or non-dairy alternatives can be substituted. Paired with vegetables or whole grains, Marry Me Chicken can be a balanced meal with indulgent flair.
