2. **Season Chicken**: Season the chicken breasts with salt, pepper, and paprika on both sides.

3. **Sear Chicken**: In a large oven-safe skillet or frying pan, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the chicken breasts and sear them for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown. Remove the chicken from the pan and set aside.

4. **Prepare Sauce**: In the same skillet, add the minced garlic and cook for about 1 minute until fragrant. Pour in the chicken broth and heavy cream, stirring to combine. Bring to a simmer and let it cook for 3-4 minutes until the sauce starts to thicken.

5. **Add Cheese**: Add the mozzarella and Parmesan cheese to the sauce, stirring until melted and well combined. Add the thyme and rosemary, and season with additional salt and pepper to taste.

6. **Combine Chicken and Sauce**: Return the chicken breasts to the skillet, spooning some of the sauce over the top of each piece.

7. **Bake**: Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the sauce is bubbly and golden brown on top.

8. **Garnish**: Remove the skillet from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley before serving.

9. **Serve**: Serve the cheesy baked chicken with your choice of side dishes, such as steamed vegetables, mashed potatoes, or a fresh salad.
