- Reduce heat and let simmer for about 10-15 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through.

Notes
Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat, gently warm on the stove or in the microwave until heated through. For extra flavor, marinate the chicken in ranch dressing for a few hours before cooking. You can add vegetables like broccoli or bell peppers during the simmering stage for a one-pan meal. If you like it spicy, consider adding some red pepper flakes or hot sauce to the creamy mixture. For variations, substitute chicken breasts with thighs for a juicier option, or use Greek yogurt instead of heavy cream for a lighter version.
