Karen's Chicken and White Sauce
"Received this recipe at a bridal shower when I got married. I'd say the fat content could be cut some by using lower-fat versions of most of the dairy products, but don't skimp on the butter."
- Ready In:
- 1hr
- Ingredients:
- 12
- Serves:
-
4-6
ingredients
- 1 lb chicken breast, sliced into thin cubes
- 2 tablespoons garlic, minced (the stuff in the jar is easier to do and just as good)
- 1 cup milk
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 3 tablespoons butter (the real deal, please!)
- 1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese
- 3 tablespoons sour cream
- 1 (26 ounce) jar Ragu parmesan and romano spaghetti sauce (although any jarred white sauce would do...)
- 1⁄2 cup parmesan cheese, freshly grated
- salt and pepper, to taste
- mushroom (optional)
- black olives (optional)
directions
- Soak the chicken breast in the milk and garlic for no less than 15 minutes.
- Put olive oil into a skillet, then transfer the chicken/milk/garlic mixture into the pan.
- Cook on medium heat until chicken is cooked through.
- For sauce, melt cream cheese, parmesan cheese, and butter and mix.
- In a large saucepan, combine this mixture with sour cream, white sauce, olives, and mushrooms (if included.)
- Heat until heated through (be sure to keep stirring so you don't accidentally scorch any!) and sauce is creamy.

This came out fairly bland. I added quite a bit of salt (and some pepper), and it was better. The directions didn't say whether to add chicken to the sauce; add sauce to the chicken; serve sauce over chicken. Sorry I couldn't rate this better.
