Cost: $12

Equipment
1 9x13-inch baking dish Ceramic or glass works best for even baking.
1 Medium mixing bowl Used to mix the sour cream sauce.
1 Whisk
1 Rubber spatula Helps spread the sauce evenly over the chicken.
1 Meat thermometer Ensures the chicken reaches 165°F safely.

Ingredients:
4 boneless skinless chicken breasts Medium size, about 2 lbs total.
1 cup sour cream Full-fat, room temperature.
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1 cup mozzarella cheese Sliced or shredded.
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 teaspoon dried basil
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1 tablespoon olive oil
2 tablespoons fresh parsley Chopped, for garnish.

Instructions:
Spoon the creamy sauce over each chicken breast, spreading it evenly with a spatula. I always remind Olivia this is why it's called 'smothered chicken'—every little corner needs its cozy blanket of sauce.

Lay the boneless skinless chicken breasts in the baking dish and season both sides with salt and black pepper. If the chicken is thick, I gently pound it to even thickness so it cooks evenly—Olivia calls this the 'pajama flattening step.'
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the sour cream, grated Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, cornstarch, dried oregano, and dried basil. The mixture should be thick and creamy. Olivia usually sneaks...
