Marry Me Chicken

Marry Me Chicken should immediately go in your weekly meal rotation. It is an easy meal to prepare on a week night and it delicious! Marry Me Chicken was a viral Tik Tok trend recently, but we waited for a bit to make sure it wasn't all hype. Mrs. Meat Church was a huge fan of this as soon as I started making it!

Dredge the chicken breasts
Scatter the flour on a large plate and coat the tenderloins, shaking off the excess. Transfer the chicken to a sheet pan or large plate in a single layer.

Fry the chicken breasts
Heat the oil in a large pan over medium-high. Once hot, reduce the heat to medium and add the butter. As soon as it melts, add the chicken and cook until golden on one side, about 5 minutes.

Flip the chicken and cook the other side until golden, 4 to 5 minutes. Do this in batches, if needed, adding more oil, if needed. Transfer the chicken to a plate or sheet pan. 

Prepare the sauce
Reduce the heat to low, add the garlic and cook, stirring often, until fragrant, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the tomato paste, stirring until the color deepens, about 2 minutes. Add the oregano and red-pepper flakes, to taste.

Increase the heat to medium, add the stock and bring to a simmer, scraping up any bits from the bottom of the pan, until the liquid is reduced by half, about 5 minutes.

Add ½ cup of the cream and warm through, stirring, until it thickens slightly, about 3 minutes.
