Honestly, this is my family’s favorite weeknight meal, and trust me, they go crazy for it every time!

Oh, and don’t forget those frozen peas—they add the perfect pop of sweetness! Now for the fun part—let’s get cooking! Sauté those veggies in butter until they’re soft, then stir in flour to thicken things up. Slowly whisk in chicken broth and milk until it’s luxuriously creamy, then fold in the chicken and peas.
