Pour this 1 creamy mixture over chicken breasts into a baking dish for an easy oven meal that’s shockingly craveable

For a little heat, use hot green chiles instead of mild, or add a pinch of cayenne or crushed red pepper flakes into the creamy mixture. If you prefer a slightly lighter dish, swap half of the sour cream for plain Greek yogurt; just know it will be a bit tangier. You can also use a Mexican cheese blend or pepper jack instead of cheddar for extra flavor.

If your chicken breasts are very large, slice them in half horizontally to create thinner cutlets so they cook more quickly and evenly. To make this more like a one-pan meal, scatter drained canned black beans and a handful of frozen corn around the chicken before pouring the creamy mixture over the top, then bake as directed.

Leftovers reheat well: slice the chicken and tuck it into tortillas for next-day tacos or layer it over greens for a quick taco salad with the extra sauce as a warm dressing.
