Instructions

Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Spray a baking dish with nonstick cooking spray and season chicken breasts with salt and pepper.
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat and sear the chicken breasts for about 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown.
In the same skillet, reduce heat to medium, sauté minced garlic until fragrant (about 1 minute), then deglaze with white wine, scraping up any bits from the pan.
Stir in heavy cream, chicken broth, lemon juice, thyme, and rosemary. Simmer on low until slightly thickened (about 5 minutes).
Place seared chicken in the baking dish and pour sauce over it, ensuring it's well-coated.
Cover with foil and bake for 25-30 minutes until internal temperature reaches at least 165°F (74°C). Remove foil for the last 5 minutes for a golden finish.
