Effortless cozy meal”: Only 4 ingredients, and I’ve made it so often it basically takes care of itself.

This simple yet delicious chicken bake comes together with almost no effort. With just four ingredients, tender chicken breasts cook in a rich, creamy sauce made from condensed soup, sour cream, and onion soup mix.

4-Ingredient Creamy Chicken Bake

Ingredients:

• 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
• 1 can (10.5 oz) condensed cream of mushroom soup
• 1 cup sour cream
• 1 packet (1 oz) dry onion soup mix

Instructions:

Step 1: Preheat and Prepare
Heat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Place the chicken breasts in a baking dish, arranging them in a single layer.

Step 2: Mix the Sauce
Stir together the cream of mushroom soup, sour cream, and onion soup mix in a bowl until the mixture is smooth and fully combined.

Step 3: Add the Sauce and Cover
Spread the sauce over the chicken so each piece is coated. Cover the dish tightly with foil and bake for 30 minutes.

Step 4: Uncover and Finish Cooking
Remove the foil and bake for an additional 15–20 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) and the sauce is hot and bubbly.

Step 5: Rest and Serve
Allow the chicken to rest for a few minutes before serving so the flavors can settle.
