Remove chicken from skillet and set aside on plate to rest.

In same skillet, melt butter and sauté diced onion until softened.

Add minced garlic and cook for 30 seconds until fragrant and aromatic.

Sprinkle flour over vegetables and stir to create roux base.

Gradually whisk in chicken broth to prevent lumps from forming.

Add heavy cream and bring mixture to gentle simmer, stirring constantly.

Stir in softened cream cheese until completely melted and smooth.

Return cooked chicken to skillet along with mixed vegetables and mushrooms.
