Can I make this dish dairy-free?

Yes! Substitute heavy cream with coconut cream and Parmesan with nutritional yeast for a creamy garlic chicken that’s dairy-free.

Is it possible to prepare this dish ahead of time?

Absolutely! Cook the chicken and sauce separately. Combine and reheat gently when ready to serve for an easy chicken dinner.

Yes, you can! Store it in an airtight container for up to three months. Thaw overnight before reheating to maintain texture.

Half-and-half or a mixture of milk and cornstarch work great. These alternatives keep the chicken with creamy garlic sauce luscious.

Fresh tomatoes can work, but sun-dried tomatoes add a more intense flavor to this Italian-inspired chicken.

A cornstarch slurry or additional grated Parmesan can thicken your chicken with creamy Parmesan sauce beautifully.

Use gluten-free flour or cornstarch for the sauce. Pair with gluten-free pasta or rice for a complete meal.

Yes! Sear the chicken first, then cook everything in the slow cooker on low for 4–6 hours for a tender result.

Thinly sliced the beef against the grain.
Mix together with light soy sauce, cane vinegar, brown sugar, garlic, salt and pepper. Marinate for 1 hour or overnight.
Then, heat the oil over medium-high heat. Once the oil is hot enough, cook the beef each side for 4-5 minutes or until browned and caramelized ( the beef will release lots of liquid and cook until the liquid has been absorbed or evaporated. The cooking is finished when the beef is browned and slightly dried on the outside)
Serve with garlic fried rice (sinangag), fried egg, tomato and cucumber. Enjoy!
