Season both sides of the chicken breasts with salt and black pepper.
Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add the olive oil. Once hot, sear the chicken breasts for 4-5 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside on a plate.
Reduce the heat to medium and add the butter to the skillet. Once melted, add the minced garlic and sautΓ© for 1 minute until fragrant.
Add the sliced mushrooms to the skillet and cook for 5-7 minutes until they're soft and browned, stirring occasionally.
Pour in the chicken broth and scrape the bottom of the skillet with a spoon to deglaze, incorporating any browned bits for added flavor.
Stir in the heavy cream and fresh thyme, bringing the mixture to a simmer. Let it cook for 3-4 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly.
Return the chicken breasts to the skillet, spooning the creamy mushroom sauce over the top. Simmer for an additional 2-3 minutes to reheat the chicken and marry the flavors.
Sprinkle the dish with fresh parsley before serving. Pair with mashed potatoes, rice, or steamed vegetables for a complete meal.
