Dredge the chicken in flour and let it rest for 2-3 minutes.

Add 2 tablespoons of butter and 3 tablespoons of olive oil to the skillet.

Cook the chicken in the skillet until golden brown, about 4 minutes per side, checking for an internal temperature of 165°F.

Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.

Add 1.5 tablespoons of butter to the skillet and then add the sun-dried tomatoes, cooking for about 2 minutes until softened.

Add 3 minced garlic cloves to the skillet and cook until fragrant and slightly browned.

Pour in 1 cup of chicken broth, scraping the bottom of the skillet to deglaze it.

Add 1 cup of heavy cream and bring to a simmer.

Stir in a heaping cup of Parmesan cheese until melted and incorporated into the sauce.

Season the sauce with red pepper flakes, dried oregano, and dried thyme to taste.
