Directions
Chicken in Poor Man’s Rich Cream Cheese Sauce, This tastes rich and looks like an expensive gourmet entree, but is actually ready in about 30 minutes and is super easy on the wallet. You probably have all the ingredients on hand., This was so yummy and easy, and I didnt need to go out shopping for items I already had cream cheese, milk, seasonings and boneless chicken breasts. The cream cheese really makes it decadent. ; However, I did tweak it a bit by adding three things one-fourth cup diced yellow onion, one-fourth cup frozen peas and paprika and served it over angel hair pasta. I added the onion to the sauted chicken about a minute or two before the water was cooking down and bubbling so the onions were also sauted and tender. When the cream sauce was done, I added a half-teaspoon of paprika and stirred until it was fully blended into the sauce. And then I added the peas to the sauce, stirring gently until the peas were no longer hard/frozen. Next time I make this, it will be with cooked, crumbled bacon sprinkled over the top. Thank you for posting this recipe. Simply delicious! :, Made as directed except I did use a bit more seasoning and used the seasonings Im used to using on chickenAdobo and I also did 16 ounces of cream cheese. I started with 8 ounces, and added a half cup of buttermilk to the sauce mixture. It was still super thin so I added another pack of cream cheese which made it thick. I didnt do garlic powder as Im a fan of fresh garlic, so while cooking the chicken I added minced garlic. It was good but next time Id probably pour it over something like egg noodles or vegetables.
