Notes

Ensure chicken breasts are cooked to an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C) for safety.
Adjust sauce consistency by adding more milk gradually if too thick, or simmering uncovered to thicken if too thin.
Sauté mushrooms separately until golden before adding them to the sauce for maximum flavor.
Garnish with fresh parsley just before serving for added freshness and color.
Customize seasoning to taste preferences, adjusting salt, pepper, and other spices accordingly.
