I personally make it on weekends or holidays as my family loves it. My son is a chicken lover so he loves to eat this recipe with noodles. Truly it adds value to my dinner table.

Why Chicken Breast? Can we use Boneless Chicken?
Yes, the boneless chicken can also use to prepare this recipe. The chicken breast becomes juicy and tender while frying so I used the breasts to prepare this creamy chicken. You can apply the same recipe to prepare with boneless chicken. It will have the same taste as with breasts.
Why Fry Chicken?
Fried chicken closed the chicken pores and make it juicier and tender. So it's a great idea to fry chicken before simmering it in the garlic sauce. Non fried chicken will be good in taste but will give you a raw taste that has not been accepted my foodies. So try this recipe with fried chicken to make it more tempting and scrumptious.
It's a simple and easy meal idea that will prepare within 30 minutes and perfect for everyone. If you are a beginner or bachelor then you can also prepare this recipe to make your time special.
