4 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
2 teaspoons prepared mustard
¼ teaspoon lemon juice
1 pinch ground black pepper
¼ cup wine vinegar
½ cup sour cream

While baking, brush occasionally with the remaining sour cream mixture. Remove cover for the last 5 minutes of baking and sprinkle with Cheddar cheese, if desired.
  • TO GRILL: Grill on an open grill until tender and well done, turning occasionally. When the chicken is almost done, brush on the remaining sour cream mixture until the chicken is well browned.
  • While chicken is still hot, sprinkle 1/2 cup of shredded Cheddar cheese over the top and wait for about 1 minute for the cheese to melt; then serve.

CRISPY SOUR CREAM AND ONION CHICKEN



Crispy Sour Cream and Onion Chicken image

Picture sour cream and onion dip slathered on chicken cutlets, dredged in panko bread crumbs, and fried until crisp like a potato chip, and you'll envision this recipe. The marinade doesn't just deliver flavor here: The lactic acid in the sour cream also keeps the thin chicken breasts juicy. Shower the crispy chicken with fresh chives and lemon juice, or, if you crave something creamy for dunking, pair it with a dip of sour cream, lemon juice and chives.

Provided by Ali Slagle

Categories     weekday, poultry, main course

Time 35m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, halved horizontally (see Tip) and pounded 1/8-inch thick, or use 4 chicken cutlets (don't split or pound)
Kosher salt and black pepper
1/2 cup sour cream or Greek yogurt
1/4 cup thinly sliced chives (or 1 tablespoon dried chives), plus more for serving
2 tablespoons onion powder
2 cups panko bread crumbs
Canola oil, for frying
1 lemon, cut into wedges

Steps:

  • Pat chicken dry, and season both sides with salt and pepper.
  • In a medium bowl, stir together the sour cream, chives and 1 tablespoon onion powder. Season with salt and pepper. Add the chicken and turn to coat. (Chicken can sit in the marinade for up to 8 hours. Refrigerate, then let come to room temperature before cooking.)
  • In a shallow bowl or lipped plate, stir together the panko and remaining 1 tablespoon onion powder; season with salt and pepper.
  • Working one at a time, press the chicken breasts into the panko, using your fingers to pack the panko onto both sides of the chicken, and place on a large plate or a sheet pan.
  • Line a plate with paper towels. Heat 1/8-inch canola oil in a large skillet over medium-high. Drop a piece of panko in: If it sizzles, the oil's ready. Add a chicken cutlet (or two, if they can fit comfortably), and cook until golden brown, 3 to 5 minutes per side. Transfer to the paper towel-lined plate and sprinkle with salt. Repeat with remaining chicken, adding and heating more oil as needed, and removing excess panko from the pan with a slotted spoon.
  • Serve chicken with more chives and lemon wedges for squeezing.

Tips:

  • Use boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs for a quicker cooking time. You can also use bone-in, skin-on chicken, but you will need to increase the cooking time.
  • Make sure the chicken is cooked all the way through before serving. The internal temperature of the chicken should reach 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Use a heavy-bottomed skillet to prevent the chicken from sticking. A cast-iron skillet is a good option.
  • Don't overcrowd the skillet. Cook the chicken in batches if necessary.
  • Use a flavorful sour cream sauce. You can find many different recipes for sour cream sauce online or in cookbooks.
  • Serve the chicken with your favorite sides. Some popular options include rice, pasta, potatoes, or vegetables.

Conclusion:

Sour cream chicken is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. It is also a great way to use up leftover chicken. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a flavorful and satisfying meal that the whole family will enjoy.
