Step by step

Method

7 steps

  1. 1

    Whisk the chicken broth, bouillon, honey, onion powder, oregano, and mustard powder in a measuring cup. Set out the rest of the ingredients before you start.

  2. 2

    Slice the chicken breasts lengthwise into 2–3 thin pieces, pound them to about ½ inch thick, and pat dry. Season with salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning, then coat lightly with flour.

  3. 3

    Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high. Sear the chicken in batches for 4–5 minutes per side, until golden and nearly cooked through. Transfer it to a plate.

  4. 4

    Pour the white wine into the skillet over medium heat, scrape up the browned bits, and reduce it by half, about 4 minutes. Add the butter and garlic and cook 2 minutes.

  5. 5

    Stir in 2 tablespoons flour and cook 1 minute. Add the tomato paste and cook 1 minute more. Pour in the broth mixture in small splashes, stirring until smooth. Bring it to a gentle boil, then lower the heat.

  6. 6

    Let the sauce stop bubbling. Stir in the half-and-half and cream cheese, then add the Parmesan. Keep the heat low so the dairy stays smooth.

  7. 7

    Add the cherry tomatoes and return the chicken with its juices. Partially cover and simmer about 5 minutes, until the chicken reaches 165°F and the tomatoes soften. Finish with parsley or basil.
