Hello, the first thing that comes to mind is you may have a weak fuel pump. Does it run normally once it starts back up? Any warning lights on and have you checked for any fault codes using a diagnostic scan tool?

Ok, you will need to run thru a process of elimination since it starts and stalls. Even though no warning lights are on you will want to use a scan tool to check for any present or pending diagnostic trouble codes. Perform a visual inspection under the hood for any vacuum leaks and fluid level checks. If that all checks out, next would be doing a fuel pressure test using a fuel pressure gauge to see if the pump pressure is good and go from there.
