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.

Slice the pork shoulder to 1/4 inch pieces.
In a bowl, combine brown sugar, pineapple juice, soy sauce, vinegar, garlic, and red food colouring.
Add the pork to the mixture and marinate for 24 hours.
In a pan, heat the oil over medium low heat.
Add the pork to the pan and cook for 10-12 minutes ( flop the pork every minute to prevent burning) until it is caramelised on both sides.
Serve with sinangag (garlic fried rice) or white rice, fried eggs and enjoy!
