Ingredients
4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1 cup sour cream (or Greek yogurt for lighter option)
1 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp onion powder
1 tsp paprika
½ tsp salt (adjust to taste)
½ tsp black pepper

Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a baking dish.
In a medium bowl, mix together sour cream, Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and pepper.
Place chicken breasts in the prepared baking dish. Spread the sour cream mixture evenly over the chicken.
Bake uncovered for 35–40 minutes, or until chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
Broil for 2–3 minutes at the end if you want a golden, bubbly topping.
Garnish with fresh parsley and serve warm.

Use freshly grated Parmesan for best flavor.
Pairs perfectly with rice, pasta, or roasted vegetables.
