Ahhh yes 😌 Angel Chicken—tender, creamy, and a little tangy, often baked with a simple cream sauce and cheese. It’s a cozy, elegant dinner that feels fancy but is super easy. Here’s a classic version:
🍗 Angel Chicken
Ingredients (serves 4)
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts

- 1 tsp onion powder
- 1 tsp salt
- ½ tsp black pepper
