Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use chicken breasts instead of thighs?
Yes, but chicken breasts can dry out faster. Watch the cooking time carefully.
Can I prepare this recipe ahead of time?
Yes. Assemble everything in the baking dish, cover, and refrigerate until ready to bake.
Can I use Greek yogurt instead of mayonnaise?
Yes. Greek yogurt can create a lighter version while keeping the creamy texture.
