Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces boneless skinless chicken breasts
- 1 cup sour cream
- 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon dried parsley
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.5 cup panko breadcrumbs
- 1 tablespoon olive oil or cooking spray
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a baking dish with olive oil or cooking spray to prevent sticking.
In a small bowl, combine sour cream, Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, dried parsley, salt, and black pepper. Mix thoroughly to create a creamy mixture.
Pat the chicken breasts dry with paper towels and place them in the prepared baking dish.
Spread the sour cream mixture evenly over the top of each chicken breast, ensuring they are generously coated.
Sprinkle panko breadcrumbs evenly over the chicken, pressing gently to help them adhere to the coating.
Lightly drizzle olive oil over the breadcrumbs or spray with cooking spray to help them crisp up during baking.
Bake the chicken in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the breadcrumbs are golden brown and the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C).
Remove the dish from the oven and let the chicken rest for 5 minutes before serving.
Serve your Heavenly Chicken garnished with additional parsley, if desired, alongside your favorite sides like mashed potatoes or steamed vegetables.
