Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).

Prepare 2 lbs of chicken thighs, using fresh herbs if available.

Sear two chicken thighs in a skillet until golden brown, then set aside and repeat with the remaining thighs.

Add 2 cloves of minced garlic to the skillet and sauté for 30 seconds to 1 minute.

Pour in 3/4 cup of chicken broth to deglaze the skillet, scraping up any bits from the bottom.

Add 1/2 cup of sun-dried tomatoes, 2 tablespoons of fresh basil, 1 tablespoon of fresh thyme, and crushed red pepper to the skillet and let simmer for 1-2 minutes.

Stir in 1/2 cup of heavy cream and 1/3 cup of Parmesan cheese, allowing it to melt and combine into a creamy sauce.

Return the seared chicken thighs to the skillet, spooning the sauce over them.

Transfer the skillet to the oven and bake for 12 minutes.

Check the internal temperature of the chicken to ensure it reaches 165°F (74°C).

Remove from the oven and let sit for a minute before serving.

Plate the chicken, spoon sauce over the top, and garnish with fresh basil and additional Parmesan cheese.
