p
- reheat the Oven: Set the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a casserole dish with cooking spray or oil to prevent sticking.
- Prepare the Seasoned Flour Mixture: Combine flour, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and pepper in a bowl.

- Serve: Spoon the creamy sauce over the chicken and enjoy hot with your favorite sides.
Notes
- Use smoked paprika or cayenne pepper for additional flavor variations.
- Substitute with gluten-free flour or almond flour for a gluten-free option.
- To prevent sogginess, ensure the sauce doesn’t cover the chicken coating.
