Must-Try Tips

Since Creamy Chicken is so easy to make, why not double up on the recipe and save some for later?

  • Bake in a casserole dish lined with aluminum foil, leaving about 6” of foil overlapping the edges.
  • After it is cooled completely, wrap the chicken tightly in the aluminum foil and secure it in a zippered bag, labelled with the date on it.

Perfect for busy weeknights, just thaw and reheat!

  • Use the stovetop, microwave or oven to reheat this recipe. Simply add a little milk to the sauce to prevent it from drying out.
