Notes

Recipe tips:

if sauce is not thick enough you can also pour into a saucepan and simmer for a few minutes until thickened
you can also cut chicken into small bite sized pieces before cooking if preferred
if you choose to add some veggies to this recipe, stick with carrots or other hearty root veggies that won't get too soft while cooking
