Start by washing the radishes thoroughly to remove any dirt. Trim the tops and roots, and cut smaller radishes in half and larger ones into quarters so they are uniform in size.
In a large skillet over medium heat, add the olive oil and allow it to heat for about 1 minute.
Add the minced garlic to the skillet and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant, being careful not to burn it.
Add the radishes to the skillet, stirring to coat them evenly with the garlic and oil.
Pour in the chicken broth and add the butter to the skillet. Toss in the thyme sprigs, and season with salt and black pepper.
Bring the mixture to a simmer, then lower the heat and cover the skillet. Allow the radishes to cook for about 15 minutes or until they are tender when pierced with a fork.
Once the radishes are tender, remove the lid and stir in the heavy cream. Increase the heat slightly and continue to cook for another 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sauce has thickened slightly.
Remove the thyme sprigs and stir in the grated Parmesan cheese, allowing it to melt into the sauce.
Taste and adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper if needed.
Transfer the braised radishes to a serving dish and garnish with chopped fresh parsley before serving.
