Sour Crean ‘N Chicken
Description
This comforting casserole combines tender chicken breast halves with a rich, tangy sauce made from sour cream, cream of mushroom soup, and dried onion soup mix. The addition of fresh dill and sliced mushrooms adds depth and earthiness, while a splash of lemon juice brightens the flavors. Baked until bubbly and golden, the chicken becomes incredibly juicy and absorbs the savory sauce. It is a perfect weeknight dinner that feels indulgent yet comes together with pantry staples. Serve it over cooked egg noodles for a hearty, family-friendly meal that delivers classic home-style satisfaction.Ingredients

Note
Ensure chicken is skinless for best results.
You can use fresh dill instead of dried dill weed; use 1 tablespoon fresh dill if substituting.
Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently to prevent the sauce from breaking.
For extra flavor, marinate the chicken in lemon juice for 30 minutes before baking.
