Notes
Variations
Spinach Cream Cheese Chicken – Chop spinach and add to the sauce one it is smooth. Stir spinach and let soften for a minute.
Buffalo Cream Cheese Chicken – Replace shallot with onion and substitute white wine for buffalo sauce.
Tips
Don’t overcook the sauce. It just needs to heat through, but cooking for longer increases the chances of your cream cheese separating.
If sauce becomes too thick, thin with more white wine and whisk until smooth.
