Ingredient Additions and Substitutions
This recipe is incredibly flexible. You can swap chicken breasts for thighs if you prefer juicier meat. Greek yogurt can replace sour cream for a lighter version, and any good melting cheese works beautifully. Feel free to add cooked bacon bits, sautéed mushrooms, or even a handful of spinach to the sauce for extra flavor and texture.
