Notes

  • Fresh Parmesan melts smoother than pre-shredded cheese.
  • Use low-sodium broth to avoid excess salt.
  • Chicken thighs can replace breasts for juicier results.
  • Add spinach or mushrooms during the last 30 minutes.
  • Store leftovers refrigerated up to 3 days.
  • Freeze portions up to 2 months.
  • Add broth or cream while reheating if sauce thickens.
