Serve Easy Smothered Chicken
Once the cheese has melted, it’s time to eat! I served this with some tomatoes, broccoli, and zucchini. I kept the veggies simple and seasoned them with some salt, pepper, and garlic powder.
Tips and Frequently Asked Questions
- Always cook chicken until it reaches at least 165 degrees with an internal meat thermometer.
- I used shredded Colby Jack cheese, but shredded cheddar, or even pepper jack cheese would be good on the chicken.
- If you don’t have a griddle, you can make the smothered chicken in a skillet on the stove.
- I used the Texas Roadhouse Gold Sauce, but any brand of steak sauce should work as a marinade.
