Another amazing recipe from Christy Jordan's Southern Plate.
It's so good I do believe I could enjoy it every single day!
You can keep the recipe very simple by just using chicken, broccoli, pimento cheese and the heavy cream.
Or you can jazz it up a bit, as I did, by adding garlic, celery and mushrooms.
We all need a quick go-to recipe - this one can be ready in less than 30 minutes!!
Any way you fix it, it's bound to be a hit!
