Description
A comforting dish perfect for fall evenings, featuring chicken smothered in a creamy sauce.
Ingredients
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1 cup sour cream
- 1 cup cream of mushroom soup
- 1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar or your choice)
- 1 tablespoon garlic powder
- 1 tablespoon onion powder
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh herbs for garnish (like parsley)
Instructions
- Prepare the oven by preheating to 350°F (175°C). Season the chicken breasts with garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper to taste.
- Sear the chicken in a large skillet over medium heat with a tablespoon of oil, for about 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown. Remove and set aside.
- Mix the sauce by combining sour cream and cream of mushroom soup in the same skillet, stirring until smooth. Optionally add some shredded cheese for extra flavor.
- Assemble the dish by placing the seared chicken in a baking dish, covering it with the creamy mixture, and topping with remaining cheese.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until fully cooked and cheese is bubbly and golden.
- Serve with fresh herbs on top. Enjoy with rice or crusty bread!
Notes
Use a meat thermometer to ensure chicken reaches 165°F (75°C). Customize with vegetables for a nutritious boost.
