Chicken with Sun-dried Tomatoes

Servings 4 servings

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup water
  • 1/4 cup chopped sun dried tomatoes divided
  • 1 plum tomato diced, Roma
  • 1 clove garlic peeled
  • 1 teaspoon dried marjoram
  • 1 tablespoon red wine vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil plus 1 teaspoon, divided
  • 4 medium boneless skinless chicken breast halves
  • 1/4 teaspoon sea salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 1/2 cup finely shredded Romano cheese divided

Instructions
 

  • Prepare sauce: In a blender or food processor, place first 6 ingredients (water through vinegar) along with 2 teaspoons of the oil; process until just a few chunks remain; set aside.
  • Heat remaining 1 tablespoon of oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sprinkle salt and pepper on both sides of chicken breast halves then add to the skillet and cook for 3 to 5 minutes per side or until golden on the outsides and juices run clear (reducing heat as necessary to prevent burning). Transfer to a plate and tent with foil to keep warm.
  • To the same skillet, add prepared tomato sauce; bring to a boil then reduce heat and simmer till heated through.
  • Arrange chicken on dinner plates; top with sauce and garnish with cheese.
