Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Place chicken in one even layer on the bottom of a rectangular baking dish.
- In a medium skillet over medium heat, melt the butter. Whisk in the flour and stir until it begins to turn golden brown (this is called making a roux). Whisk in all the spices and cook for another 30 to 60 seconds.
- Pour in the stock and bring to a boil. Turn down to a simmer and stir occasionally until sauce thickens to the consistency of a thick gravy, 5 to 10 minutes. Turn off the heat and mix in the sour cream and cheese.
- Spoon the sauce over top of the chicken, sprinkle with the cracker crumbs, and bake until golden brown on top, about 25 to 30 minutes. Finish under the broiler for 1 to 2 minutes if necessary to brown the crackers at the end.
- Serve warm with your green veggie of choice and enjoy!
Notes
- We recommend organic ingredients when feasible. Here's my recipe for homemade chicken stock.
