WOW Chicken

I saw this recipe on Pinterest and it looked easy so i decided to make it last night and Paul loved it. (I liked it but too but i haven't been able to eat chicken breasts as easily while i'm pregnant so it wasn't a super home run for me) But, based on his reaction i decided to share.

It's just a standard chicken breast that you bake with some stuff on top but it makes it moist and gives it some extra flavor. It goes great with any sides too so if you just need something simple and fast but with flavor, try this!
 Ingredients:
 4 chicken breasts
1/2 C sour cream and/or greek yogurt and/or mayonnaise
1/4 C grated parmesan cheese
Italian (or just regular) bread crumbs

-Preheat oven to 425
-Line a cookie sheet with foil (makes for super easy cleanup)
-Put your chicken breasts down on the pan. (Mine were thawed already but you could maybe experiment with frozen ones.) 
-Mix Sour Cream and/or Yogurt and/or mayonnaise and Parmesan cheese in a bowl. 
*I'm really into Greek Yogurt right now because it's so healthy so i used mostly plain greek yogurt with a little sour cream to equal a 1/2 C 
-Spread mixture over top of chicken breasts, then sprinkle Italian bread crumbs on top 
-Bake for 20-30 minutes until chicken is cooked.

**I also think it would be really yummy to add some Italian Dressing seasoning from a pouch to the mix on top. I'll probably try that next time.

  1. We made these the other day! They were yummy. We have tried the mayo version and the greek yogurt version. Usually the Greek yogurt doesn't change the taste to much for me, but in the recipe it did. They were both delicious, but the mayo one turned out much more moist and flavorful.

  2. I made it with frozen chicken and just changed the cook time to 45 minutes. I also put in a half packet of the italian dressing. And it was DELICIOUS!
