Soup – You should use low-sodium cream of chicken soup and then adjust the flavour with salt. You could also make your own cream of chicken soup, there are some great recipes out there that are easy to make and taste amazing.
Milk – Use whole milk for the best flavour.
Bouillon – If you do not have low-sodium Better Than Bouillon, you will want to taste the dish before you add the salt. You may also want to use just 1 tablespoon of the Better Than Bouillon and taste it before adding more.
Seasonings – We used poultry seasoning, but you can substitute with a half teaspoon of ground sage and half a teaspoon of ground marjoram. We also used thyme, oregano, salt, and pepper. Make sure you test the sauce and adjust the seasonings according to your own preferences.
Lemon – A little lemon juice adds some brightness to the dish and cuts down on the richness.
Butter – Melt your butter in the microwave by cubing the butter and placing it in a small dish. This will prevent the butter from exploding. Cook at 10-15 second increments.
