Notes
For sides a vegetable and any kind of carb is good. Mashed potatoes, roasted potatoes, rice just to give some options.
Keep juices from chicken on plate or whatever and pour when seasoning the sauce.
Last time I made this, the sauce was too wet. Here’s what I learned:
When cooking chicken in batches, wipe out excess moisture between batches and add a bit more oil for the next one.
After the final batch, turn the heat down and let the pan cool for a few minutes.
Wipe out any watery residue, leaving the fond, then add a drizzle of oil and some butter before adding the aromatics.
When adding the liquids (broth and cream), reduce the sauce by simmering over medium heat until it thickens — use the spoon test: drag your finger along the back of a spoon and make sure the line stays clear.
Once reduced, lower the heat and stir in the cheese to finish the sauce.
