### 1

### 2
Heat butter in large skillet over medium-high heat; add chicken pieces. Cook until browned on all sides, about 10 minutes.

### 3
Mix marinara sauce and half-and-half in a small bowl, reserving 2 tablespoons. Pour into baking dish. Arrange chicken in prepared dish.

### 4

## Make It Quicker
• Pound chicken breasts to ¼-inch thickness, then thinly slice. The chicken will brown more quickly in step 2 and baking time will be reduced to about 20 minutes in step 4.
