Step 1
Heat the oven to 350°F. While the oven is heating, season the chicken with salt and pepper. Heat the oil in a 12-inch ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and cook for 6 minutes or until browned on both sides (to prevent sticking- make sure the skillet and oil are hot before adding the chicken). Remove the chicken from the skillet.
Step 2
Add the mushrooms and garlic to the skillet and cook for 2 minutes or until the mushrooms are lightly browned. Stir in the soup, milk, 1/4 cup cheese and the thyme. Season to taste. Return the chicken to the skillet (if the chicken released any juices, add those, too). Sprinkle with the remaining cheese.
Step 3
Bake for 20 minutes or until the chicken is done. Serve with hot cooked rice, pasta or roasted potatoes, if desired.
