The sauce transforms into something incredibly rich while you go about your day completely hands free
My kids actually request this for birthday dinner which speaks louder than any recipe review ever could

I once skipped softening the cream cheese and spent twenty minutes trying to whisk out tiny lumps that refused to budge
The sauce looks separated and weird when you first pour it but trust the process because it transforms into liquid gold

If the sauce feels too thick after cooking stir in a quarter cup of warm broth to loosen it up
Low and slow is key here because high heat makes the chicken tough and the sauce separate
