Chicken and Mushrooms in Lush Cream Sauce



Ingredients:
4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 cup mushrooms, sliced
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 cup heavy cream
½ cup chicken broth
1 teaspoon thyme
1 tablespoon butter
Salt and pepper to taste
Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Directions:
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper, then cook for 6-7 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove chicken from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, add butter and sauté the mushrooms for 3-4 minutes until softened.
Add minced garlic and cook for another minute.
Pour in chicken broth and bring to a simmer, scraping up any browned bits from the pan.
Stir in heavy cream and thyme, then simmer for 5-6 minutes until the sauce thickens.
Return the chicken to the skillet, spoon some sauce over the chicken, and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes.
Garnish with fresh parsley and serve hot.
