Instructions

Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
Lightly grease a baking dish and arrange chicken breasts in a single layer.
Mix olive oil with garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and pepper. Brush over the chicken.
In a bowl, combine softened cream cheese, sour cream, Parmesan, chicken broth, and Italian seasoning until smooth.
Spread the cream cheese mixture evenly over the chicken.
Bake uncovered for 25–30 minutes, until chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
In the last 5 minutes of baking, sprinkle chopped green onions or chives (if using).
Garnish with fresh parsley and serve warm with your favorite sides.

Notes

Use boneless chicken thighs for a juicier result.

Add spinach or mushrooms for extra nutrition.

Include red pepper flakes or hot sauce for a spicy kick.

Leftovers can be stored in the fridge for up to 3 days or frozen for later.

Reheat with a splash of broth if the sauce thickens.
