Tips from the Pillsbury Kitchens

  • tip 1
    Soft, seasoned, spreadable cheese, also known as Boursin, found in the refrigerated specialty cheese section of the grocery store, adds nice depth of flavor and creaminess. Use this in place of cream cheese spread, if desired.
  • tip 2
    Sauce tends to thicken as it stands; add additional chicken broth to thin out as necessary.
