Instructions
-
Preheat the Oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C) while you prepare the chicken.
-
-
Prepare the Chicken: Wash and dry the chicken breasts thoroughly to ensure a good sear.
-
Create the Flour Mixture: In a mixing bowl, combine the flour, oregano, garlic, paprika, salt, and pepper to create a flavorful dusting for the chicken.
-
Dust the Chicken: Generously coat each chicken breast in the flour mixture, ensuring an even layer for added flavor and texture.
-
Brown the Chicken: In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the chicken breasts and brown them on both sides, which should take about 3-4 minutes per side.
-
Arrange in Baking Dish: Once browned, transfer the chicken to a 9 x 13-inch baking dish. Top with sliced green onions, mushrooms, green olives, and drizzle the lemon juice over the top.
-
Mix the Sauce: In a small bowl, stir together the white wine, sour cream, tomato paste, salt, and pepper until well combined.
-
Pour Over Chicken: Carefully pour the sauce mixture over the arranged chicken in the baking dish, ensuring each piece is coated.
-
Bake: Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for 35 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld beautifully.
-
Add Cheese: After 35 minutes, remove the dish and sprinkle the grated gruyere cheese evenly over the chicken. Return to the oven and bake for an additional 10 minutes uncovered, allowing the cheese to melt and turn golden.
-
Serve: Once baked, this dish is lovely served with mashed potatoes, steamed asparagus, and fresh-baked dinner rolls, creating a comforting meal that is sure to impress.
