How to Make Garam Masala And Sour Cream Chicken Bake

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Score the chicken breasts a few times to help the spices penetrate.
  3. Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
  4. Add 1 medium onion, chopped, and sauté until lightly browned (about 5 minutes).
  5. Add 1.5 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts to the skillet and sauté, turning once, until halfway cooked (about 5-7 minutes per side).
  6. While the chicken cooks, whisk together 1 cup sour cream, ½ cup plain yogurt, 2 tablespoons lemon juice, 2 tablespoons garam masala, 1 teaspoon turmeric, and ½ teaspoon salt in a bowl until smooth.
  7. Once the chicken is nearly cooked, remove it from the skillet and add it to the sour cream mixture, turning to coat completely.
  8. Transfer the coated chicken to a greased 9x13 inch baking dish.
  9. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the sauce is bubbly.
  10. Let rest for 5 minutes before serving. Garnish with fresh cilantro or parsley, if desired.
