Chicken In Sour Cream
By Addie
"This is a family favorite of ours, and I also serve it to company. Serve this delicious chicken recipe along with a salad, rolls, and a vegetable."
MY NOTES: Use my own Lipton Onion Soup Mix Clone recipe to cut the excessive salty taste some reviewers complained about!
Ingredients
- 8 chicken thighs
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
- 1 pinch ground black pepper
- 1 pinch salt
- 1 pinch paprika
- 1 (10.75 ounce) can condensed cream of mushroom soup
- 1 (1 ounce) package dry onion soup mix
- 1 cup sour cream
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon dried dill weed
Preparation
Step 1
Brown chicken in oil over medium heat. Place in a 9 x 13 inch greased baking dish. Sprinkle with salt, pepper, and paprika to taste.
Combine mushroom soup, onion soup mix, sour cream, lemon juice, and dill weed. Pour over chicken.
Bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for one hour, or until chicken is tender and sauce is brown.

The sauce is amazing! I added sliced potatoes and carrots to the dish and covered all with the sauce and baked for the hour suggested and the meal was complete and delish!
I made this recipe, but tried to cut the fat and calories. I used cooking spray instead of the oil, I used fat free sour cream, fat free condensed mushroom soup and boneless, skinless chicken thighs. I served this dish over rice... oh my goodness. How delicious! This is a fantastic recipe. The dill & lemon juice just give the recipe a great tangy kick. This recipe was a huge success & is a new family favourite. Thanks!
Love it! I did add some milk to thin out the sauce and used chicken breasts instead. I would not add any salt as the soup mix is salty enough. Served over homemade mashed potatoes and w/your favorite green veggie and you've got dinner!
The sauce is quite rich, but very yummy. And it was easy! I also used boneless skinless chicken breast- I cooked them 3 min per side in the pan and then baked for 45 min & it was perfect. I will make this occasionally for dinner parties.
This is rich and satisfying, albeit slightly salty. Using a little less onion soup mix and subsituting onion power may make it better. This would go great with green beans and garlic mashed potatoes.
This recipe makes a fabulous sour cream chicken. The chicken is extremely flavorful and tender, and it easy too! I wouldn't change a thing.
This tastes awesome, but omit the salt!! The onion soup mix has plenty of salt in it already. Serve over unsalted egg noodles.
5 stars with modifications! We didn't have dill, so we added 1 Tbsp fresh minced parsley. We also didn't have onion soup mix so we used 1 Tbsp chopped onion with ~1/2 cup chicken broth. It was amazing. With 5 thighs (instead of 8) we ran out of sauce - so adjust accordingly! One more thing...add a whole yellow onion, cut in wedges, around the chicken while it bakes. Just great. We licked the plate.
This was great. Even my picky 7 year old liked the chicken! The sauce was creamy and tangy without being overwhelming. The dill gave it a special taste. I made it exactly as written, except I didn't add any extra salt to the chicken (the onion soup mix and condensed soup have enough). I used the whole packet of onion soup mix and didn't think the dish was too salty. And I added thinly sliced red potatoes to the dish for the entire baking time. I used cream of celery soup, but I think any soup would work
Awesome!!! I was looking for something different for chicken thighs. I changed 2 things, I browned my chicken in a little butter and didn't add the salt. Very Good!! Thanks for sharing this recipe.
Although this wasn't the prettiest dish I've ever made, it was super easy & quite tasty. Added sliced potatoes in with the chicken for a complete meal. Will definitely be making this again.
Recipe was a big hit. Only thing I did different was cover the chicken while baking. Left it with lots of sauce
Fabulous recipe. My family and I love it and we have sent it on to some other close friends looking for a quick meal.
Found it to be way too salty.
Fantastic!!! I omitted the salt, halved the onion soup mix and subbed some dried onions and everything was awesome! Great over rice or mashed potatoes. Thanks for a great addition to our menu!
