Notes

  • Please refer to my FAQ’s and ingredient list above for other substitutions or for the answers to the most common questions
  • Chicken thighs can be a very affordable option
  • If I use chicken thighs then I’ll usually cut the butter in half just because there is more fat in chicken thighs
