You guys know i’m a lazy cook. I don’t really mind the cooking part per say. It’s the dang clean up part that vexes my spirit! Dishes give me anxiety. Don’t be fooled by the photos. I am the Paper Plate Gourmet. Before starting this blog, I forgot I even owned real dinnerware. Facts! Anyway, I said all of that nonsense to say, one pot meals are Coop’s faves! Here’s another one to add to the collection.
I remember attending my church’s banquet around 2006-2007. The caterers served baked chicken in an insanely delicious cream sauce. I never forgot it. And, I think I’ve made something pretty close to that flavor. On top of that, it’s easy, creamy, and quick! ISSA WIN!
This would be divine over some potatoes! But, I wanted to keep this as keto friendly as possible, so I just paired it with steamed veggies. What are you gonna serve it with?
Love,
