Recipe Notes
Creamy Garlic Tuscan Chicken Storage Instructions
Place it in the fridge for up to 3 days, stored in an airtight container. Due to it being a cream-based sauce, it’s not recommended to freeze it as upon reheating, the cream will potentially split. If frozen, do so for no longer than 1 month, stored in an airtight container. Thaw in the fridge overnight before reheating.
Creamy Garlic Tuscan Chicken Reheating Instructions
To reheat, place it into a pan over medium-high heat and gently mix to combine and heat throughout, ensuring the chicken is hot in the centre. Adding a splash of fresh cream is recommended, which will help prevent the sauce from splitting. Don’t microwave, as the harsh heat will cause it to split.
