How do you keep chicken breast moist?

Cover the chicken breasts with a creamy mixture and bake until ready. If you cook longer than necessary, the chicken will turn out dry.

How long should you bake chicken?

I bake the creamy chicken for 40-60 minutes. Don’t forget to check the readiness of chicken breasts using a cooking thermometer. Chicken is ready when the internal temperature is 165°F.

How do I bake frozen chicken?

Just leave the chicken at room temperature for 1 hour to start the defrosting process. Next, drain the thawed water and start cooking.

Recipe tips;

  1. You can use fresh mushrooms instead of canned.
  2. If you don’t like chives, replace them with parsley or other favorite herbs
  3. You can use another size of the baking dish, but keep in mind that the cream mixture should cover the chicken breasts.

    OMG! i made this tonight, as the recipe, I was a little short on the sour cream. I had it in the oven about 20 min. and our son called from AZ ( we’re in IA). I left it in the oven the hr. then took it out till we were done talking, then put it back in for 1/2 hr. It was still great! We had rice and broccoli with it. DEFINATELY a keeper! THANK YOU!

    I’m trying to work out the calories for this dish. How many servings is this? Can you give an estimate of how many pounds the chicken totals out to be?

    I am always looking for something new to try. This looks delicious and decided to make it for supper tonight. I am not a big fan of cream mushrooms soup so I use cream of broccoli and cream chicken instead. I wanted a thicker sauce so I followed your advice to leave out the water. I also added fresh broccoli. I did not have chives so I subsided for dried parsley.was also thinking about adding a little bit of cheese to melt on the top during the last few min of cooking . Now here is hoping that my picky husband will like it .

      Hi Karen, of course, you can use chicken thighs. Cooking time depends on the size of the chicken thighs. They should be ready in 40-50 minutes.

      Hi Kim, you can use cream cheese instead of sour cream. Just mix together 3/4 cup cream cheese with 3 tbsp milk and use it instead of 1 cup of sour cream

    love this recipe! Your share is very awesome. The only thing I’ve noticed is it needs to cook for at least 40-50 minutes, possibly due to the size of the breasts.

    Easy and good means it gets added to my rotation!!! I like to make recipes as instructed first before doing minor changes. I didn’t add the water instead added cream cheese. Just a couple is spoonfuls to keep it creamy!!

    This dish is a hit with my husband and its easy for me. Instead of 1/2 cup of water, I added the mushroom juice to an empty soup can, added enough water to fill the can and added a soup can of uncooked rice. One dish meal, just add your salad and veggies! Might have to add a few minutes cook time but not much.

    It came out very runny. The chicken was really tender, but I think that adding uncooked noodles to the dish before adding the chicken and soup mixture would create a whole meal. I put uncooked pasta (about 2 cups) in the bottom of the dish with the leftovers and let it sit and absorb some of the moisture. Now I have leftovers for tomorrow!
