Tips for Preparation

• Don’t overcook the chicken: Cook the chicken until it’s just done to avoid dry meat. Use a meat thermometer to check for doneness. It’s done when the temperature reaches 165°F.
• Adjust consistency: If the sauce is too thick, add a little more chicken broth, water or cream to reach your desired consistency.
