I found this recipe on Pinterest - my favorite source of inspiration. This chicken is best described as a deconstructed chicken casserole. I actually thought this was easier and better than a regular chicken casserole. I used full fat sour cream, but I think light sour cream would be fine. I would stay away from fat free sour cream - I think you need some fat to flavor the chicken. I think our favorite part of the dish was the crunchy crouton topping - YUM! Give this a try the next time you need a super quick weeknight meal.
(Printable Recipe)
2 pounds chicken tenders
1 1/2 cups of crushed Garlic Herb Croutons
1 cup sour cream (full fat)
kosher salt
freshly ground pepper
garlic powder
1/4 cup unsalted butter, cubed
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
Lay the chicken close together on a foil lined baking sheet. Sprinkle with salt, pepper and garlic powder.
Coat with a thick layer of sour cream. Top that with the crushed croutons and then dot with the butter.
Bake in a 375 degree F oven for 25-35 minutes.

Sounds delicious! I saw this pass through Pinterest myself, and now I have to try it!
You are finding such great recipes there!
Love Pinterest! I make a version of this with mayonaise and cornflakes-bizarre but delicious.
Sounds yummy.. I will try this as soon as I get a new oven... mine is broken. :( getting a little tired of microwave cooking.
I need to make this soon!
I made this but I added some shredded cheese under the crackers. It was SO GOOD!!!
Good lord, girl, that looks like comfort food on steroids!
I just popped this in the oven (1/3/12). I used a can of white meat chicken, sour cream, seasonings. I didn't have croutons, but had a box of stove top stuffing mix that I used instead. I'm serving it with roasted yellow squash and green salad. Yummy!
