Opulent Chicken

6 boneless chicken breasts, raw
1 cup mozarella cheese (in slices or shredded)
3 cans cream of chicken soup
1/2 cup sour cream
2 Tablespoons lemon juice
1 sleeve Ritz crackers crumbled
1/2 cup butter, melted

Place chicken breasts on bottom of 9x13" pan. Place cheese on top. Combine soup, sour cream and lemon juice and pour on top of cheese. Combine crackers with melted butter. Sprinkle cracker mixture on top of sauce.

Bake at 275 degrees for 3 hours.

Serve with rice.

The beauty of this dish is:
1.  How easy it is to prepare.
2.  You cook it for so long the chicken is very tender.
3.  It makes its own gravy. This is my youngest child's most requested meal.

The original recipe was from my Mom's Enrichment night and is Linda Breinholt's recipe. It had swiss cheese, but I found I liked the mozarella much better.

It is the perfect dish to warm you up in the winter time. It is what you crave when you get cold.


Can make 24 hours ahead if needed.
