"My husband and I really enjoyed this dish! I did add chicken to the pan while I sauteed the garlic. Then I removed the chicken to rest and continued to make ths sauce in the same pan. I didn't have cream so I used skim milk and the sauce was still thick enough! Also, I don't like hot/spicy food, but I added a few drops of hot sauce anyway and I'm glad I did. It gave the dish just enough heat and really added to the flavor. I will definitely make this again.
