Chicken in Jack Daniels Cream Sauce

These boneless chicken breasts cooked in a creamy Jack Daniels sauce can be on the table in just 30 minutes. It’s a simple, but flavorful and comforting meal. The sauce cooks up thick and rich and the Jack Daniels gives it an awesome flavor that’s kind of hard to describe. It has a half cup of whiskey, but the taste isn’t overpowering at all and really enhances the flavor of the cream.
