Last night was one of the rare occasions I get to cook for myself. So, today’s meal is something that you’d see me make for myself – something I enjoy. It’s a single serving of pure deliciousness served up in a bowl.

I probably chose the wrong bowl for the photo in hindsight. I recently went thrift store shopping and got a bargain on a bunch of things I plan to incorperate into the photos I take, and this was one of them. The cream sauce just missed the lip of the bowl (if you look in the picture you can see it hanging out about 1/2 an inch under the lip of the bowl). It was rather a shame because I thought it’d look much better than it ended up.

It will be a rather creamy/soupy recipe, being that there is a lot of liquid to go with the chicken – but trust me, it is super easy to eat and delicious with every single bite you take. You’re welcome to cut back on the chicken if you’d like to cut back on the protein, or use chicken thighs instead of breast – that was all I had on hand when I was making this.

So, what’s your favorite chicken recipe? Let us know in the comments below!
