Notes
- If you prefer a richer flavor, you can add a bit of sour cream or cream cheese to the sauce.
- This recipe can be made with chicken thighs if you prefer dark meat, just adjust the cooking time accordingly.
- For a lower-calorie version, you can use low-fat cream of chicken soup or substitute the butter with a lighter alternative.
- Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently in the microwave or stovetop with a splash of chicken broth.
