Instructions

Prepare the chicken; paper towel dry the thin chicken breasts (be sure to butterfly and pound thin if you bought thick ones).
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Season chicken breasts with salt, pepper, garlic powder and smoked paprika, then add to the skillet and cook until golden on both sides, about 4-5 minutes per side. Remove chicken from skillet and set aside.
Prepare the sauce; in the same skillet over medium heat, add butter, garlic and onions. Once onion and garlic are translucent add onion soup seasoning packet, salt, and pepper to taste. Stir until fragrant.
Reduce heat to low; add in cream, frozen green beans, and crispy fried onions; give a good stir, cover and let simmer 8-10 minutes.
Remove the pan from the heat and stir in parmesan cheese until well combined.
Nestle in the cooked chicken breasts into the sauce along with the green beans. Garnish with extra crispy fried onions, if desired.
