Ingredients

• 4 pieces Boneless, skinless chicken breasts
• 2 tablespoons Sweet paprika
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon Onion powder
• 1 teaspoon Dried thyme
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 cup Chicken broth (gluten-free)
• 0.5 cup Heavy cream
• 2 tablespoons Chopped fresh parsley

Directions

Step 1

Place the chicken breasts on a cutting board. If needed, use a meat mallet to pound the chicken to an even thickness of about 1/2 inch.

Step 2

In a small bowl, mix the paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, dried thyme, salt, and black pepper.

Step 3

Rub the spice mixture all over the chicken breasts, ensuring an even coating on all sides.

Step 4

Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add the olive oil.

Step 5

Once the oil is hot, add the chicken breasts to the skillet. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on one side until they are browned.

Step 6

Flip the chicken and cook for another 4-5 minutes on the other side, or until the chicken is cooked through and has an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).

Step 7

Remove the chicken from the skillet and set it aside on a plate.

Step 8

In the same skillet, pour in the gluten-free chicken broth and scrape up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan.

Step 9

Stir in the heavy cream and bring to a simmer, letting the sauce thicken slightly for about 2-3 minutes.

Step 10

Return the chicken to the skillet and spoon the sauce over the top.

Step 11

Garnish with freshly chopped parsley and serve hot.
