Method
 

Cooking Instructions
  1. Start by patting the boneless skinless chicken thighs dry with paper towels. Season both sides with salt, pepper, thyme, rosemary, garlic powder, and onion powder. Set aside.
  2. In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat until shimmering. Add chicken thighs in a single layer, cooking for 5 to 8 minutes per side until golden-brown and cooked through.
  3. In the same pan, reduce heat to medium and add butter. Once melted, add garlic and sauté for about 30 seconds. Add mushrooms and sauté for 5 minutes until browned.
  4. Pour chicken stock into the pan, scraping the bottom to deglaze. Simmer for 2 minutes. Then stir in heavy cream and parmesan until well combined.
  5. Return chicken to the skillet, simmer for 3 to 5 minutes until heated through. Adjust seasonings and garnish before serving.
