Season both sides of the chicken breasts with garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper.
Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and melt the butter.
Add the chicken breasts to the skillet and sear for about 3-4 minutes on each side until lightly browned. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the cream of chicken soup and chicken broth. Stir thoroughly to combine and create a smooth sauce.
Return the chicken breasts to the skillet, ensuring they are coated in the sauce.
Reduce the heat to low, cover the skillet, and let the chicken simmer for 20-25 minutes, until the chicken is cooked through and reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C). Stir the sauce occasionally to prevent sticking.
Taste the sauce and adjust seasoning with additional salt or pepper, if needed.
Serve the chicken with the creamy sauce over a bed of cooked white rice or egg noodles.
Optional: Garnish with chopped parsley for a fresh, vibrant touch before serving.
