Creating Smothered Chicken With Vegetables is simple. Just follow these easy steps:

1. Prepare the Chicken: Season the chicken breasts with paprika, salt, and pepper on both sides.
2. Heat Oil: In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat.
3. Sear Chicken: Add the chicken breasts to the skillet and cook for 5-7 minutes on each side until golden brown. Remove the chicken and set aside.
4. Sauté Vegetables: In the same skillet, add the chopped onion and minced garlic. Sauté for 2-3 minutes until fragrant.
5. Add Mixed Vegetables: Stir in the mixed vegetables and cook for another 5 minutes until they begin to soften.
6. Combine Ingredients: Return the chicken to the skillet. Pour in the chicken broth and heavy cream. Stir to combine.
7. Season: Add dried thyme, and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper to taste.
8. Simmer: Reduce the heat to low, cover the skillet, and let it simmer for 25-30 minutes. The chicken should be cooked through, and the sauce thickened.
9. Check Doneness: Ensure the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C).
10. Serve: Remove from heat, garnish with fresh parsley, and serve warm.
