Notes

Required Kitchen Tools

When making Heavenly Chicken, I always keep these tools handy for the smoothest cooking process:
  • Mixing Bowls: For combining the sour cream and spice mixture.
  • Shallow Dish: To coat the chicken with Ritz cracker crumbs.
  • Baking Dish: For baking the chicken evenly in the oven.
  • Pastry Brush or Spoon: To drizzle melted butter over the chicken before baking.
  • Oven Thermometer: Ensures even heat for perfectly golden chicken.
