I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my sauce turned out lumpy. I think I may have added the cream too quickly.

The chicken was a bit dry, but the sauce was delicious. I would recommend using a different cooking method, such as baking or grilling, to keep the chicken moist.

The sauce was a bit too thick for my taste, but the chicken was delicious. Next time I will try adding more lemon juice to thin out the sauce.
