This recipe was a bit too salty for my taste. I would recommend using less salt, or omitting it altogether.

I've made this recipe several times and it's always a hit. The chicken is always tender and juicy, and the sauce is creamy and flavorful. I love that it's a one-pot meal, so cleanup is a breeze.

This dish is a great way to use up leftover chicken. The sauce is creamy and flavorful, and the chicken is tender and juicy. I served it over pasta, but it would also be great with rice or potatoes.

I followed the recipe exactly and the chicken turned out dry and overcooked. The sauce was also bland.
