How to Make Roquefort Chicken Breast

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Season 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (6 oz each) generously with salt and freshly ground black pepper.
  3. Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in an oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Brown chicken breasts for 2-3 minutes per side, until lightly golden.
  4. Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven.
  5. In a medium bowl, whisk together 1/2 cup sour cream, 2 cloves minced garlic, 4 ounces crumbled Roquefort cheese, and 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley (optional).
  6. Pour the Roquefort mixture evenly over the chicken breasts in the skillet.
  7. Bake for 45-55 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
  8. Let rest for 5 minutes before serving. Garnish with extra parsley, if desired.
