12. - 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
13. - 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
14. - 1/2 teaspoon paprika (optional)

18. - 1/2 cup heavy cream
19. - 3 large mushrooms, sliced
20. - Fresh herbs (parsley or thyme) for garnish
22. ### Step-by-Step Instructions
24. #### 1. Prepare the Chicken
25. - Begin by preparing your chicken breasts. Rinse them under cold water and pat dry with paper towels.
26. - Season both sides generously with salt and pepper.
28. #### 2. Cook the Chicken
29. - In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of butter over medium-high heat.
30. - Add the seasoned chicken breasts to the skillet and cook for about 6-7 minutes per side or until they reach an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
31. - Remove the chicken from the skillet and let it rest on a plate.
33. #### 3. Make the Creamy Sauce
34. - In the same skillet, reduce heat to medium.
35. - Add the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter and sauté the sliced mushrooms until they release their moisture and become golden brown (about 5 minutes).
36. - Sprinkle in the flour, paprika, garlic powder, and onion powder. Stir well for about a minute.
38. #### 4. Thicken the Sauce
39. - Gradually pour in the chicken broth while constantly stirring to prevent lumps from forming.
40. - Bring the sauce to a simmer and cook until it thickens slightly (about 5 minutes).
42. #### 5. Incorporate Heavy Cream
43. - Slowly stir in the heavy cream and let the mixture come back up to a gentle boil, reducing heat as needed.
45. #### 6. Finish Cooking Chicken
46. - Return the cooked chicken breasts to the skillet.
47. - Cover and cook for another 2-3 minutes on each side or until fully heated through.
49. #### 7. Garnish and Serve
50. - Once the sauce has thickened nicely, remove from the heat.
51. - Use a slotted spoon to transfer the chicken to serving plates.
52. - Spoon over the creamy sauce and garnish with fresh herbs like parsley or thyme.
54. ### Tips for Success
56. - Ensure your chicken breasts are not too thick as they can be difficult to cook evenly. If necessary, slice them into thinner pieces before cooking.
57. - Allow enough time for the sauce to reduce and thicken properly; this step is crucial in making a rich, creamy texture.
59. ### Conclusion
60. Chicken Breasts Supreme is not only delicious but also visually appealing with its golden brown chicken and glossy sauce. Perfect for impressing guests or simply enjoying a special meal at home!
