Melt in Your Mouth Chicken

Melt in Your Mouth Chicken

Discover the magic of this incredibly tender and flavorful Melt in Your Mouth Chicken recipe that transforms ordinary chicken breasts into a creamy, cheesy delight.

  • Total Time: 53 minute
  • Yield: 4 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1½ teaspoons seasoned salt
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
  • ½ cup Italian seasoned breadcrumbs

Instructions

  1. Preheat and Prepare: Set your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 9×13 inch baking dish with cooking spray or butter.
  2. Create the Creamy Coating: In a medium bowl, thoroughly combine sour cream, garlic powder, onion powder, seasoned salt, and black pepper until smooth and well-blended.
  3. Prepare the Chicken: Place chicken breasts in the prepared baking dish, ensuring they don’t overlap. Spread the sour cream mixture evenly over each piece of chicken.
  4. Add the Crispy Topping: Mix the grated Parmesan cheese and breadcrumbs in a separate bowl. Sprinkle this mixture generously over the sour cream-coated chicken, pressing gently to adhere.
  5. Bake to Perfection: Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) and the topping turns golden brown.
  6. Rest and Serve: Allow the chicken to rest for 5 minutes before serving. This helps retain the juices and ensures maximum tenderness.
