Finally, spread the soup mixture over the chicken breasts. Sprinkle some parmesan cheese on top and bake for one hour at 350 degrees or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees. You can always cook it a little longer to get it more tender.

If you like the top to be a little crusty, you can cook it a little longer, or turn the broiler on for about five minutes. But be sure to keep an eye on it as it will burn fast on the broil setting.

The chicken comes out tender and delicious, and you’ve got a creamy sauce to spread on top.

Notes

If you don't like sour cream, you can use Greek yogurt instead.
You can switch out the soups for different flavors, such as mushroom or celery, as they will all taste great.
You can also cook this in the slow cooker. Just follow the directions and cook for 4-5 hours on high or 8 hours on low. Low will always create more tender results.
