Serve immediately over your favorite pasta, with a side salad and crusty Italian bread.
For extra flavor, consider adding a pinch of red pepper flakes to the sauce.
Fresh mozzarella will give you the best, most melty results.
If you don't have chicken broth, a little dry white wine works well too.
Make sure not to overcook the chicken, so it stays moist.
