Notes & Wine Advice
Recipe Notes
This dish develops even more flavor when prepared ahead of time. Let it cool and gently reheat before serving. You can also substitute the nonalcoholic beer with a regular lager for a deeper flavor profile.Wine Advice
A smooth red wine such as Merlot pairs beautifully with this dish. The soft tannins and fruity notes complement the creamy sauce and savory chicken. Prefer white? A full-bodied Chardonnay also works surprisingly well and adds a fresh contrast.Nutrition values
