Season chicken breasts on both sides with salt and pepper. In a large skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat. Add chicken breasts and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side. Remove from skillet.
6 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, Salt and pepper, 1 Tablespoon oil
Add mushrooms and grape tomatoes to skillet. Cook for 1-2 minutes.
1/2 cup sliced mushrooms, 1/2 cup grape tomatoes
Reduce heat to low. Stir in Alfredo sauce and half and half. Add browned chicken and sun dried tomatoes. Simmer for 5-10 minutes.

There will be some extra sauce with this recipe. I usually use it to toss with some pasta on the side.
You can add baby spinach or kale to this recipe about halfway through the simmering of the sauce.
