Steps
- Season the chicken: Sprinkle the chicken breasts with salt and pepper on both sides.
- Sear the chicken: Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and cook for about 5 minutes per side, until golden brown and almost cooked through. Remove from the pan and set aside.
- Sauté aromatics: In the same skillet, melt the butter. Add the chopped onion and minced garlic, and cook until the onion turns translucent.
- Cook the mushrooms: Add the sliced mushrooms and dried thyme. Continue to sauté for 5–7 minutes, until the mushrooms are soft and slightly browned.
- Make the sauce: Pour in the heavy cream and chicken broth. Stir well, bring to a gentle simmer, then reduce the heat and let the sauce thicken for about 10 minutes.
- Combine: Return the chicken breasts to the skillet, spooning some sauce over them. Cook for another 5–10 minutes, until the chicken is fully cooked and tender.
- Finish and serve: Garnish with freshly chopped parsley and serve warm.
