How to Make Creamy Rich Chicken a la King

• Heat unsalted butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add your seasoned boneless chicken breasts, cooking until they are golden brown and no longer pink inside, about 6-8 minutes.
• Once the chicken is cooked, remove it from the skillet and set aside. In the same skillet, add minced garlic, chopped green bell pepper, and sliced mushrooms. Sauté for about 5 minutes until the veggies are softened and aromatic.
• Sprinkle all-purpose flour over the sautéed veggies, stirring to coat. Gradually pour in the chicken broth while whisking, until the mixture is smooth and begins to thicken, approximately 3-4 minutes.
• Reduce the heat to low and mix in heavy cream, soy sauce, and dried thyme. Keep stirring continuously until everything is well-combined and the sauce is luxuriously creamy, about 2-3 minutes.
• Stir in the frozen peas and let them warm through for about 3 minutes, making sure they maintain their vibrant color and sweetness.
• Taste the sauce, adjusting salt and pepper as needed. Serve the creamy chicken over rice, pasta, or toast, and consider garnishing with freshly chopped herbs for extra flair.
