Description

A supremely creamy and cheesy baked chicken dish smothered in a tangy sour cream sauce, all made easily in one pan for the ultimate comfort food dinner.


Ingredients

Scale

4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
4 slices mozzarella cheese
1 cup sour cream
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)


Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F. Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
  2. In a bowl, mix sour cream, 1/2 cup Parmesan, cornstarch, oregano, garlic powder, salt, and pepper until smooth.
  3. Place chicken in the dish. Top each breast with a slice of mozzarella.
  4. Spread the sour cream mixture evenly over the chicken. Sprinkle with remaining Parmesan.
  5. Bake uncovered for 45–60 minutes, until chicken is cooked through (165°F) and top is golden.
  6. Garnish with parsley and serve over rice or mashed potatoes.

Notes

  • Pound chicken to an even thickness for best cooking results.
  • Full-fat sour cream is recommended for the creamiest sauce.
  • Let the dish rest for 5-10 minutes after baking for juicier chicken.
