For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a splash of dry white wine to the skillet after cooking the garlic, allowing it to reduce slightly before adding the chicken. Feel free to experiment with other vegetables such as sun-dried tomatoes, artichoke hearts, or roasted bell peppers. For a richer sauce, stir in a tablespoon of butter or a drizzle of heavy cream at the end of cooking. If you prefer a milder dish, reduce the amount of crushed red pepper flakes or omit them entirely.
