Garlic-Infused Chicken & Rice Bowls with Creamy Sauce: A Comforting, Flavorful Meal

Serving: Serve with a side of steamed vegetables, salad, or some crispy bread to soak up the creamy sauce. This meal is perfect for a hearty lunch or dinner.
Storage: Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the microwave or on the stovetop, adding a splash of chicken broth if the sauce thickens too much.
Variants:
Vegetarian Version: Replace the chicken with sautéed mushrooms or tofu for a vegetarian option.
Lemon Garlic Chicken & Rice: Add extra lemon zest or juice to the sauce for a zesty, fresh twist.
Spicy Garlic Chicken & Rice: For a spicier version, add more crushed red pepper flakes or a dash of hot sauce to the chicken and sauce.
FAQ:
Q: Can I use a different type of rice?
Yes, you can use brown rice, jasmine rice, or even quinoa as an alternative. Just adjust the cooking time accordingly.

Q: Can I make this dish ahead of time?
You can prepare the rice and chicken in advance, but it’s best to make the sauce fresh for a smooth and creamy texture. Store the cooked chicken, rice, and sauce separately in the refrigerator and reheat before serving.

Q: Can I substitute the heavy cream?
Yes, you can substitute heavy cream with half-and-half or a dairy-free option like coconut milk for a lighter or dairy-free version.
