Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 1 medium Onion, finely chopped
- 3 cloves Garlic, minced
- 1 cup Chicken broth
- 1 cup Sour cream
- 1 tablespoon All-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped
Instructions
Season the chicken breasts with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika on both sides.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the chicken and cook for 4-5 minutes on each side until golden brown. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set it aside.
In the same skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and cook for 3-4 minutes until softened. Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional minute.
Add the flour to the skillet and stir constantly for 1 minute until fully incorporated to create a roux.
Slowly pour in the chicken broth, stirring continuously to avoid lumps. Simmer for 2-3 minutes until the sauce slightly thickens.
Reduce the heat to low and stir in the sour cream until smooth and creamy. Be careful not to let the mixture boil.
Return the cooked chicken breasts to the skillet, spooning the sauce over the top to coat. Cover and simmer for 15-20 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
Sprinkle fresh parsley over the chicken before serving.
Serve the sour cream chicken with your choice of sides, such as mashed potatoes, rice, or steamed vegetables. Enjoy!
