Demi Lovato Just Shared Her Favorite Marry Me Chicken Recipe: “I Think It Worked!”

We’re tuning in to her new Cooking with Demi series!

Marry me chicken is a trendy, comforting dinner–and it’s worth the hype. Featuring chicken cutlets nestled in a creamy sun-dried tomato sauce, the main dish gets its name because it’s so good, the person you make it for might want to marry you right after they devour their plateful.

For Demi Lovato, this holds true as the star loves making this dinner—and she is now engaged. Coincidence? We think not, and neither does the pop star.

“It’s one of my favorite chicken recipes, and I think it worked because I’m getting married!” Lovato exclaimed at the start of her Instagram video, a part of her Cooking with Demi social series. Here’s how to whip up the one-pan meal—plus fitting sides and more versions you’ll want to make ASAP.

Inspired by the recipe by Little Sunny Kitchen, Lovato listed her ingredients as follows:1

3 large chicken breasts, boneless and skinless, sliced lengthwise into thin cutlets
½ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
6 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 cup chicken stock
1 cup heavy cream
½ cup parmesan cheese, grated
1 teaspoon chili flakes
¼ teaspoon oregano
¼ teaspoon thyme
⅓ cup sun-dried tomatoes, chopped
1 tablespoon fresh basil leaves
After slicing the chicken into thin cutlets, she lightly seasons each cutlet with salt and pepper. Because the sauce is so flavorful, a ton of seasoning isn’t required. Then, she coats the chicken with flour.

“When you sear it, it’s got a nice crisp to it,” Lovato explains as she pats flour onto each cutlet.

In a pan with olive oil and butter on medium heat, Lovato adds her chicken—admittedly, she burns the first one, and we love the honesty as it happens to all of us.

Browning the chicken should take 4 to 5 minutes on each side. After browning, Lovato sets her chicken to the side to make the cream sauce in the same pan. She adds in minced garlic, chicken stock, heavy cream, chili flakes, oregano, thyme and sun-dried tomatoes in the hot pan and lets it simmer. Finally, she puts her chicken back into the pan for a few minutes to soak up the sauce before plating.

Garnished with fresh basil and more sun-dried tomatoes, she serves the dish to her fiancé, singer-songwriter Jutes.

“This is amazing,” he says and jokingly gets down on one knee. This dinner is definitely swoon-worthy for all of the right reasons. First, it’s packed with protein, so you’re bound to stay satisfied for the rest of the evening. And when paired with a fiber-packed side salad, it makes for a complete meal that you’ll want to try for yourself this fall.

We’re sure that Lovato’s Marry Me Chicken is as tasty as it looks. Our own Marry Me Chicken recipe is a simpler version of Lovato’s favorite, as it can be made with just six ingredients.
