Cooking
- In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the cubed chicken breasts, sprinkle with 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper, and cook for about 5-7 minutes until they’re golden brown and cooked through.
- In the final minute of cooking, add the minced garlic, stirring until fragrant but not burnt.
- While the chicken cooks, prepare the sauce. In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the chicken broth, nutritional yeast, dried oregano, the remaining 1 teaspoon salt, and 1 tablespoon of the starch.
- Prepare the sun-dried tomatoes by draining well, blotting dry, and chopping them into small pieces.
- Once the chicken is fully cooked, toss in the chopped sun-dried tomatoes, stirring well to combine.
- Next, add only the white solid part of the chilled coconut cream into the pan, leaving the liquid behind for future use. Stir until melted and fully incorporated.
- Pour the chicken broth mixture over the chicken. Increase the heat to bring it to a boil, then reduce to a simmer for approximately 5 minutes or until the sauce is thickened to your liking.
- If the sauce seems too liquidy, combine an additional tablespoon of starch with a tablespoon of broth in a small bowl, whisk until smooth, and add to the pan. Stir and cook until it thickens further.
- Season with additional salt as needed. Serve your Marry Me Chicken with roasted veggies or over a bed of steamed cauliflower rice for a complete Whole30 dinner.
Notes
Let the chicken rest for a few minutes before serving to allow the juices to redistribute. Incorporating fresh herbs like basil shortly before serving elevates the dish.
