How to Make Baked Chicken Breast Supreme

  1. In a large bowl, whisk together 1 cup sour cream or plain yogurt, 1/4 cup lemon juice, 2 cloves garlic (minced), 1 teaspoon dried oregano, 1/2 teaspoon paprika, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
  2. Wash and thoroughly pat dry 4 (6-ounce) boneless, skinless chicken breasts with paper towels.
  3. Add the chicken breasts to the marinade, ensuring they are fully coated.
  4. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 8 hours, or preferably overnight.
  5. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with foil and grease lightly.
  6. Remove the chicken from the marinade and let excess drip off.
  7. In a shallow dish, combine 1 1/2 cups dry breadcrumbs (see tip below) and 1 teaspoon seasoning salt.
  8. Coat each chicken breast evenly in the breadcrumb mixture.
  9. Arrange the breaded chicken breasts on the prepared baking sheet.
  10. Bake for 40-45 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the juices run clear. Internal temperature should reach 165°F (74°C).

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Small additions can make a big impact! Try a sprinkle of fresh herbs, a dash of your favorite spice blend, or a squeeze of citrus just before serving to really enhance the flavors of your dish.
