Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add olive oil.
Season the chicken breasts with garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper on both sides.
Sear the chicken breasts in the skillet for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown but not fully cooked through. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the cream of mushroom soup and chicken broth. Stir well to combine and bring the mixture to a gentle simmer.
Return the partially cooked chicken breasts to the skillet, nestling them into the mushroom sauce.
Sprinkle dried parsley over the chicken and sauce for added flavor and garnish.
Cover the skillet with a lid, reduce the heat to medium-low, and let it cook for 20-25 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through and the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
Taste the sauce and adjust the seasoning with additional salt and pepper, if needed.
Serve the chicken and creamy mushroom sauce over cooked white rice. Garnish with more parsley if desired.
