    1. Prepare the Chicken:
    Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper on both sides.
    In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the chicken breasts and cook for 5-6 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
    2. Make the Garlic Cream Sauce:
    In the same skillet, reduce the heat to medium and add 2 tablespoons of butter. Once melted, add the minced garlic and sauté for about 30 seconds, until fragrant.
    Pour in the chicken broth and scrape up any brown bits from the bottom of the skillet. Let it simmer for 2-3 minutes to reduce slightly.
    3. Add the Cream and Seasonings:
