Notes

  • Use high-quality chicken for the best results.
  • Adjust the thickness of the BBQ ranch sauce by adding a little ketchup or more honey.
  • Feel free to substitute the dairy-free Alfredo with another cheese alternative.
  • Be cautious with the amount of soy cream to avoid a too-thin cheese sauce.
  • Consider adding a splash of soy sauce to the BBQ ranch for an Asian-inspired twist.
  • Fresh herbs like basil or parsley can brighten the cheese sauce.
