Cooking

  3. Stir in sour cream for extra creaminess and flavor. Garnish with shredded cheese and parsley, if desired.

Notes

This dish can be served over rice or creamy mashed potatoes to soak up the sauce. Store leftovers in the fridge for up to 4 days or freeze for up to 3 months. Reheat in the microwave or stovetop as needed.
