Ingredients for Amish Baked Creamed Chicken

  • Roasting Chicken
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 1 1/2 cups heavy cream

How to Make Amish Baked Creamed Chicken

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a shallow dish, whisk together 1/2 cup all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper.
  3. Dredge 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 1.5 lbs total) in the flour mixture, ensuring they are fully coated.
  4. Melt 2 tablespoons butter in a large oven-safe skillet (or Dutch oven) over medium-high heat. Brown the chicken breasts on both sides, about 2-3 minutes per side.
  5. Pour 1 1/2 cups heavy cream over the chicken in the skillet.
  6. Cover the skillet tightly with a lid or aluminum foil.
  7. Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 1 hour and 15 minutes to 1 hour and 30 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the sauce has thickened slightly. Internal temperature should reach 165°F (74°C).
  8. Serve immediately and enjoy!

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Elevate your dish with simple flavor boosters! A final flourish of freshly chopped herbs can add incredible brightness, while a squeeze of lemon or lime juice right before serving can awaken all the flavors. Don't underestimate a sprinkle of quality finishing salt or a drizzle of good olive oil to make your creation shine.
