Description

This sour cream and onion chicken recipe is a fun take on the classic flavors! Tender chicken breasts are pan-fried and smothered in an easy, rich, and creamy sauce.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 boneless skinless chicken breasts
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • Salt & pepper (to taste)
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons butter (divided)
  • 1 medium onion (sliced)
  • 1 clove garlic (minced)
  • 1/2 cup chicken broth
  • 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 cup sour cream (full-fat)
  • Fresh chopped parsley (optional, to taste)

Instructions

  1. Step: Cut the chicken breasts in half lengthwise so you have 4 thinner pieces. Sprinkle them with the garlic powder and some salt & pepper.
  2. Step: To a skillet, add the olive oil and one tablespoon of the butter. Let the pan heat up over medium-high heat for a few minutes.
  3. Step: Once the pan is hot, add the chicken. Cook it for about 5-6 minutes/side or until it’s golden and cooked through (165F). Transfer the chicken to a plate.
  4. Step: Reduce the heat to medium, and add in the remaining butter and the onion. Sauté the onion until it’s softened and lightly browned (about 10-15 minutes).
  5. Step: Stir in the garlic and cook for 30 seconds.
  6. Step: Stir in the chicken broth and Worcestershire sauce, and scrape up any brown bits from the bottom of the pan.
  7. Step: Stir in the sour cream until you’ve got a smooth sauce, and let it heat through for a couple of minutes (ensure it doesn’t bubble too much or else it could curdle).
  8. Step: Add the chicken back to the skillet and spoon some sauce over top. Season with extra salt & pepper if needed, and serve immediately with some chopped parsley sprinkled over top.

Notes

If the sauce is too thick, add a little more chicken broth.
