Ritz Chicken

Tonight I made this yummy dinner; the whole family loves this chicken! And it's so easy!

Ritz Chicken
Originally from my friend Lisee

Ingredients
6 large chicken breasts
2 tubes Ritz crackers
6 Tbsp. Parmesan Cheese
1 to 2 cups sour cream (can use fat-free)
1/3 to 1/2 cup butter, melted (OPTIONAL! I have been making it without butter for months now that it takes GREAT!!)

Directions

Put Ritz crackers in a Ziploc bag and smash with rolling pin until crushed into crumbs. Coat chicken with sour cream then roll chicken in Ritz cracker mixture and place in a suitable baking dish. When all of the chicken is in the dish, sprinkle with parmesan cheese and pour melted butter evenly over chicken. Bake uncovered in oven for 60-90* minutes at 350 or until chicken is cooked through.

*I've been cooking it for 90-100 minutes so that the outside is uber-crispy, and it's still quite tender on the inside. I'm ready to experiment to see if 60-70 minutes would be even more tender inside...

**Of course you can make it in much smaller increments...but why? ;)
