How to Make Baked Blue Cheese Chicken
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a medium bowl, combine 4 ounces crumbled blue cheese, 1/2 cup sour cream, and 1 clove minced garlic. Set aside.
- Lightly salt 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 1.5 lbs total).
- Dredge each chicken breast in 1/2 cup all-purpose flour, shaking off any excess.
- Dip each floured breast in 1 beaten large egg.
- Roll each chicken breast in 1 cup breadcrumbs.
- In a large non-stick skillet, melt 2 tablespoons butter with 1 tablespoon olive oil over medium-high heat.
- Brown chicken breasts for 2-3 minutes per side.
- Transfer the browned chicken breasts to a lightly greased 9x13 inch baking dish.
- Pour the blue cheese mixture evenly over the chicken breasts.
- Cover the baking dish with foil and bake for 45-60 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
- If desired, broil for the last 2-3 minutes to brown the topping (watch carefully to prevent burning).
