Chicken Breasts with Sun-Dried Tomato and Garlic Crust

This Mediterranean-inspired chicken dish features a vibrant, textured topping that brings a burst of savoury flavour to your dinner table. By using the fragrant oil from the sun-dried tomato jar to sear the meat and bind the breadcrumbs, every element of this recipe is infused with a rich, aromatic depth. The combination of sweet tomatoes and pungent garlic creates a golden crust that perfectly complements the succulent chicken.

As a high-protein main course, this dish is both satisfying and nutritious, making it an excellent choice for a healthy weekday dinner or a relaxed weekend lunch. Serve the chicken alongside a crisp green salad, steamed seasonal vegetables, or a portion of light herbed couscous to soak up any juices. It is a simple yet sophisticated way to elevate standard chicken breasts into something truly special.
