Season the chicken breasts on both sides with salt and black pepper.
Dredge each chicken breast in the flour, ensuring both sides are lightly coated. Shake off any excess flour.
Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add 2 tablespoons of olive oil and 1 tablespoon of butter.
Once the butter is melted and the pan is hot, add the chicken breasts and cook for 4-5 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of butter. Stir in the minced garlic and cook for 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the sliced mushrooms to the skillet. Cook for 5-6 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the mushrooms are browned and softened.
Pour in the white wine, scraping the bottom of the skillet to deglaze and lift any flavorful bits. Let the wine reduce by half, about 2-3 minutes.
Stir in the chicken broth and bring the sauce to a simmer. Cook for another 3-4 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
Reduce the heat to low and stir in the heavy cream. Add the fresh thyme and season with a pinch of salt and pepper to taste.
Return the chicken breasts to the skillet, spooning the sauce over the top. Let them heat through for 2-3 minutes.
Garnish with freshly chopped parsley and serve the chicken with the creamy mushroom wine sauce over mashed potatoes, rice, or pasta.
