A wonderful lady in our church gave this to me. In October when I broke my arm, she made this dish and brought it over to us. It was so good that I asked her for the recipe, and last night, Dec. 19th, 2006, she brought the recipe and all the ingredients over to us. Thank you Debbie Lusty!

Tips:

  • To make sure the chicken pillows are cooked evenly, use a meat thermometer to check that the internal temperature has reached 165°F (74°C).
  • If you don't have a meat thermometer, you can cook the chicken pillows until the juices run clear when you cut into them.
  • You can use any type of cheese you like in the filling. Some popular options include mozzarella, cheddar, and Parmesan.
  • If you don't have any heavy cream, you can use milk instead. However, the sauce will be thinner.
  • You can serve the chicken pillows with a variety of sides, such as mashed potatoes, rice, or roasted vegetables.
