For an extra layer of flavor, try adding a splash of white wine to the sauce after sautéing the garlic.
If you don't have a grill, you can pan-fry the chicken breasts in a skillet or bake them in the oven.
Adjust the amount of garlic to your preference. For a milder flavor, use less garlic or roast the cloves before chopping.
To make the sauce ahead of time, prepare it up to the point of adding the cheeses. Reheat gently before serving, stirring in the cheeses until melted.
