How to cook deliciously - Sun-Dried Tomato Chicken Pasta

1. Stage

Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add chicken breast; cook and stir until browned, about 8 to 10 minutes.

Stir in garlic and cook until fragrant. Add roasted peppers, sun-dried tomato pesto, cream, basil, and cayenne pepper; stir until well mixed. Simmer over low heat until chicken is cooked through and sauce has thickened, about 20 to 30 minutes.
