  • If you don't have chicken broth, you can use vegetable broth instead. However, chicken broth will give the dish a richer flavor.
  • To make the dish vegetarian, you can omit the chicken and add more vegetables, such as chopped carrots, celery, or mushrooms.
  • The dish can be served as a main course or a side dish. It pairs well with fish, chicken, or pork.
