Marry Me Chicken (Dairy Free)
I have seen this viral recipe everywhere for over a year if not longer and I’ve always hesitated to make it because it was very dairy ingredient heavy. I think I was concerned about making my own dairy-free version because the dairy played such a large roll in the original.
This week I decided to just give it a try and see how it went. I was so pleasantly surprised! I have never tried the original sadly because of my lactose intolerance and my son’s dairy allergy. But I can say without a doubt this version of dish is amazing.
Both of my son’s loved it, which is few and far between. Usually, I only get a thumbs up from one or the other. Not only that, but this dish is incredibly easy and takes very little time to make. It’s perfect for a weeknight meal
Incredibly savory, warm, and comforting - I hope you give this dairy free version a try.
