How to Make Kleeman's Chicken On Cornbread

Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Prepare cornbread according to package directions or your favorite recipe and set aside.
Heat olive oil in a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Add chicken and cook until browned on all sides.
Add chopped onion to the skillet and cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
Stir in minced garlic and cook for 1 minute more.
In a small bowl, whisk together chicken broth, heavy cream, flour, thyme, salt, and pepper.
Pour the cream mixture into the skillet with the chicken and onion. Bring to a simmer, then reduce heat to low and cook for 10 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened slightly.
Pour the chicken mixture over the prepared cornbread.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until heated through and bubbly.
Garnish with fresh parsley, if desired, and serve immediately.
