Notes

For a richer flavor, use chicken thighs instead of chicken breasts. You can add other vegetables like broccoli florets, carrots, or green beans in the last hour of cooking. Adjust the amount of garlic and parmesan cheese to your liking. Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days or frozen for up to 2 months.
