If you want to cook chicken meat so that it stays tender, try this recipe for chicken in cheese sauce. I've prepared this dish many times for both my family and guests, and it's always a big hit.

Step 1
First, take a saucepan and melt the butter in it. Add the flour, remove from heat, and stir until a smooth paste forms, as shown in the photo. Add 100 ml of warm milk, mix well, return to the heat, and gradually pour in the remaining 200 ml of milk. When the mixture thickens, add the spices, stir, and remove from heat.

Place the sauté pan in a water bath and cook for another 20 minutes, stirring. At the very end, sprinkle with cheese and turn off the heat. In a blender, grind the breadcrumbs, one tablespoon of cheese, and parsley into fine crumbs.

Place in a preheated oven at 180 degrees and bake for 15 minutes. Serve immediately— if the dish sits even for a short time, the sauce will cool, the crust will harden, and the effect won't be the same.
