📝 Ingredients
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon garlic powder
- 1 tablespoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika

👩🍳 Directions
1️⃣ Prepare the Chicken
In a shallow bowl, mix flour, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and pepper. Coat each chicken breast in the mixture, pressing gently.
2️⃣ Cook the Chicken
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook chicken 4–5 minutes per side until golden and cooked through. Remove and set aside.
3️⃣ Sauté the Mushrooms
In the same skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Add mushrooms and sauté 3–4 minutes until softened.
4️⃣ Make the Sauce
Pour in heavy cream, stir to combine with mushrooms, and simmer 2–3 minutes. Stir in Parmesan cheese and cook 2 more minutes until creamy. Season with salt and pepper.
5️⃣ Combine & Serve
Return chicken to the skillet, spoon sauce over the top, and simmer 2–3 minutes to heat through. Garnish with thyme and parsley.
