• 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
• 0.25 teaspoon garlic powder
• 2 tablespoons parsley (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 325°F (165°C).

Step 2

Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with non-stick cooking spray or butter.

Step 3

Lay the dried beef in an even layer across the bottom of the prepared baking dish.

Step 4

Season the chicken breasts with black pepper and garlic powder on both sides.

Step 5

Melt the butter in a skillet over medium heat and quickly sear each chicken breast for 1-2 minutes on each side until golden brown (do not cook through).

Step 6

Place the seared chicken breasts on top of the dried beef in the baking dish.

Step 7

In a medium bowl, mix together the cream of mushroom soup and sour cream until smooth.

Step 8

Spread the soup mixture evenly over the chicken breasts, covering them completely.

Step 9

Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 1 hour.

Step 10

After 1 hour, remove the foil and bake for an additional 15-30 minutes to allow the top to brown slightly.

Step 11

Remove from the oven and let the dish rest for 5 minutes before serving.

Step 12

Garnish with chopped parsley, if desired, and serve warm alongside rice, potatoes, or steamed vegetables.
