Notes

This creamy chicken dish can be made with turkey or tofu as a substitute for a different protein. If you're short on time, consider preparing the dish up to the point of adding the crème fraîche and refrigerating it until you're ready to cook. You can add a splash of white wine or a squeeze of lemon juice to the sauce for additional flavor. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days, or freeze for longer storage. Reheat with a bit of cream or water to maintain creaminess.
