Sour Cream Chicken Bake

This Sour Cream Chicken Bake is creamy, cheesy comfort food. This easy chicken casserole is smothered in a rich sour cream sauce and loads of cheddar cheese. Make it for an easy weeknight meal to feed your family.

I always have chicken breasts on hand because of their versatility and affordability. Plus, it’s one of the only protein sources that my picky daughter will eat. It’s like a blank canvas just waiting for me to create something delicious to eat. 
With the chilly weather upon us, I want comfort food. Casseroles and bakes are on the menu quite a bit during the colder months in my home. I like them because they are easy to make and hard to mess up. They aren’t pretty to look at, but they taste yummy. I think that’s the most important thing anyways.

In this Sour Cream Chicken Bake, the chicken breasts are baked in a sour cream mushroom sauce. Serve it with some rice so you can sop up all that yummy sauce. 

If you want to make it lower carb, don’t dredge the chicken in the flour mixture.
