Ingredients

• 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon dried thyme
• 1 teaspoon paprika
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 cup chicken broth
• 1/4 cup heavy cream
• 2 tablespoons butter
• Fresh parsley for garnish

Directions

1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
2. In a small bowl, combine the garlic powder, dried thyme, paprika, salt, and black pepper.
3. Season the chicken breasts on both sides with the spice mixture.
4. Heat the olive oil in an oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat.
5. Add the seasoned chicken breasts to the skillet and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown.
6. Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through and reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
7. Remove the skillet from the oven and transfer the chicken to a plate. Tent the chicken with aluminum foil to keep it warm.
8. Place the skillet back on the stovetop over medium heat. Add the chicken broth and scrape the bottom of the skillet to loosen any browned bits.
9. Let the broth simmer for a few minutes until reduced by half.
10. Stir in the heavy cream and butter until smooth and creamy.
11. Return the chicken to the skillet and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, coating the chicken with the creamy sauce.
