Tips & Techniques:

  • Be careful not to brown or burn the garlic. This will result in a more bitter flavored sauce.
  • You can substitute bone broth for the chicken stock. Some chicken stocks contain gluten so be sure to check the labels.
  • You can substitute half-and-half for the heavy cream in this recipe. Just be aware that the sauce will not be quite as thick and creamy.
  • Store leftover chicken and sauce in an air-tight container in the refrigerator. Consume within 3-4 days.
