To make this Marry Me Chicken Tortellini, start by slicing up 2 large chicken breasts into cubes. Then, mix together ½ cup of flour, ½ teaspoon each of salt, pepper, paprika, and garlic powder into a bowl or your Better Breader Bowl if you have one! I use mine all the time, I have it linked below if you want to grab one! Next, coat your chicken breasts in this flour mixture and shake off any excess flour. Then, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil and 2 tablespoons of butter in a skillet on medium heat and place the chicken into the skillet. Cook the chicken for about 4-5 minutes on each side until they are golden brown and reach an internal temperature of at least 165º. Once the chicken is cooked through, take it out of the skillet and set it aside on a plate.Into the same skillet, add 2 tablespoons of minced garlic, ⅓ cup of chopped sun dried tomatoes, and 1 cup of chicken broth. Then, lower the heat and add 1 cup of heavy cream and 1 cup of parmesan cheese to the skillet. Stir frequently and then add in 1 teaspoon of crushed red pepper flakes, and ½ teaspoon each of oregano and thyme. Stir everything together well and let simmer. Add in one 19 oz bag of frozen tortellini to the skillet and cover and let cook for a few minutes. Once the tortellini is nice and tender, add the chicken back into the skillet and stir until everything is coated in the delicious, creamy sauce.

Once you’re ready to serve this Marry Me Chicken and Tortellini , dish out a big and heaping serving onto a plate or in a bowl!
