1. Prepare the chiles. Then, remove the stems and seeds. Cut one of the roasted chiles into short thin strips and reserve. Chop the remaining 2 chiles and put them in a blender.
2. In a medium saucepan, heat 1 tablespoon of the oil over medium-low heat and cook the onion and garlic, covered, until the onion is translucent, about 4 minutes. Transfer to the blender with the chiles. Add the chicken broth and blend until smooth. Return the blended mixture to the same saucepan. Stir in the cream and 1/4 teaspoon of the salt. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer, stirring, 4 to 5 minutes to blend the flavors. Adjust seasoning and reserve off heat.
3. In a large nonstick skillet, heat the remaining tablespoon of oil and cook the chicken breasts 4 to 5 minutes per side, or until lightly browned on the outside, firm to the touch, and no longer pink inside at the thickest part. Season with the remaining 1/4 teaspoon of salt. Reheat the sauce. Serve with the heated sauce spooned over the chicken. Scatter the reserved chile strips on top.
