Creamy Baked Chicken

Submitted by Kittencalrecipezazz

"This chicken dish is good enough to serve to guests! To save time you can brown the chicken in the morning then refrigerate until ready to add on the sauce and bake. I ususally double the complete sauce recipe and make 9-10 breasts, I bake it in a large shallow roasting pan. You can make this using skin-on chicken pieces in place of the chicken breasts."

Wow! This was really good. What was even better is what I did with the leftovers! We served the chicken with mashed potatoes & a veggie so there was an abundance of sauce left & 2 chicken breasts. I cooked up some small shell pasta dumped it in a baking dish with the sauce & cubed up chicken mixed in. Topped it with a mixture of Ritz, parmesan, cheddar cheese, herbs & melted butter. Baked at 350° for about 30 minutes. Phenomenal!!! You can also add some veggies. We had peas as a side which I ended up mixing in on my plate. The whole family loved the original recipe & my casserole from the leftovers, even my picky 3 year old!

Instead of the raw garlic and onions in the sauce mixture I added them to the pan the chicken was in, the minced garlic and onion smelled divine as it sauteed in the hot oil with the chicken. Also, instead of yellow cheddar I used sharp white. I scraped the pan after removing the chicken and added the well sauteed onion garlic mixture to the sauce. The fragrance from the garlic etc was heavenly. The meal was awesome..oh, I did use noodles instead of rice..a house full of men and nothing but praise all around!

I liked it and think adding sliced mushrooms would be good but unfortunately my husband said not to make it again.

I trimmed it down to 3 servings. We really enjoyed this. The flavor comes through nicely and it's very easy to make. Thanks!

Mmm cheesy!! Will make again, think next time I will try what another reviewer posted and just throw the chicken into the pan uncooked to take it down even one step. The simpler the better in my opinion! But this was good and will make again!
