Chicken in Garlic Sour Cream

I was unsure what to rate this, made as is, it was very good, the dill, scallion, sour cream and garlic make for a great sauce. I just felt it could do with something else, so I added a teaspoon of chicken stock powder and added some light cream to give the extra liquid needed with the added stock. My family did not know I had done this and raved and said it was delicious. So I am not sure what they would have said without this, for them it may have still got the same rave reviews. I served this over gnocchi (for quickness) and kept the chicken as whole breasts and sliced and served over the top. I really loved the dill flavour it was gorgeous and made for a great quick and easy mid week meal with a wonderful result. I will be making this again. Thanks Sydney Mike

Tasty and different kind of dish. Mine wasn't pretty as the potatoes cooked too much, even though I had them on a timer. Although this didn't affect the flavor so much, it through off the texture just a little bit. I used ample fresh dill and thought the seasonings were just right as is. Thanks, Sydney Mike!

We loved the potatoes! All that herby, creamy goodness just screams comfort food. I used yukon gold potatoes, and would do so again, as the texture was just perfect. Thanks so much for posting a wonderful recipe.

Awesome dish! I added some chopped mushrooms as someone had done previously, so extra liquid was provided by these. Combined with the juices from the browned chicken, I had to add a little flour after simmering for a while to thicken it up. I also used whole baby red skinned potatoes, and chopped boneless skinless chicken breasts. I didn't have quite enough garlic, and added too much dill (I think), so I mucked it up a bit. I am now a fan of fresh dill! I don't think dried would have cut it. Other than the silly BF pawning potatoes off on me and telling me he doesn't like boiled potatoes, we loved it! Next time I will use the proper amounts of garlic and dill and it should be even more awesome. I may also try it sans potatoes and over brown rice, for my picky potato eating irishman. I served this alongside some good 'ol Ontario corn. Leftovers were my absolutely delish lunch the following day. Thank you!

Really nice dish, an ease to prepare, and has so many possibilities as noted by previous reviewers. The base recipe is great, although I did reduce the dill (fresh used here to 1/4 cup). A very aromatic dish, one that begs you to scoop up the sour/cream type gravy with a slice of bread. I added a mixture of white wine/stock here, mushrooms and served over some nice whole grain rice. Thank you for a wonderful treat, Syd! Made for *Everyday is a Holiday* Dec 2008

We enjoyed this dish . I did need to add some additional pepper and salt at the table. I also added some wine and mushrooms as suggested by another reviewer. It was easy to prepare and presented well. Thanks for sharing your recipe.

This was a tasty dish! I found it slightly lacking in seasoning so I added Garli Garni (a form of garlic powder that I love!) and even added some crushed red peppers. My husband thought it rated a 3.5...I thought a 4 so 4 it is! I increased the garlic to 6 cloves and used closer to a 1/2 cup of sour cream. I used the correct amount of scallions and fresh dill. Served this with parmesan corn on the cob and side of white rice for the kiddos. Thanks for posting!

Delicious easy to make recipe; scrumptious sauce. The fresh dill was a brilliant ingredient here, and well worth hunting out if you are making this recipe. Guided by other reviewers' mention of adding extra liquid, I saw the opportunity to add about 1/2 cup of wine in step 8. I also used Greek yoghurt instead of the sour cream (something which I standardly use in recipes calling for cream). I used skinless chicken breasts, halved. In step 5, I also added about a cup of sliced mushrooms; for me, another favourite ingredient. Next time, I'll probably add another potato as the potato pieces tasted delicious with the herby sauce and chicken. After thoroughly enjoying this dish, we had still had enough to freeze - always satisfying! Thanks for sharing this fabulous recipe, Sydney Mike.

Hey Sydney Mike, this is a great way to treat chicken...lol. Made it as per instructions, 'cept I had no fresh dill so used the dried stuf. Note to oneself...PLANT SOME OF IT !!!! Tasted great, 'specially the potato cubes after they'd been rolled around in the herby, buttery, chickeny stuff. I also used 1/2 c of homemade chicken stock in with the sour cream 'cos it was starting to go a bit 'gloppy', and it helped the sauce go further. Thankyou for this little gem. So tasty, a real 'comfort food' and it will be made again and again.

This was so easy to make especially using some already cooked chicken that I had on hand. I also used dried dill as I couldn't get any fresh. Think it was about 1Tbsp or a bit more. I too added some cream to thin out the sauce a little. The only other change I made was to add some diced red pepper for colour. I served ours with some steamed cauliflower & broccoli. A real 'keeper' for us :)

This is a very tasty dish. The flavor of the dill and potatotes with the garlic and sour cream were excellent. There were a couple of things I might do differently when I make it next, however. First, I would not cook the potatoes until tender. They cook more when added in with the chicken, so I would cook them just shy of done. I would also turn the heat down and add the sour cream to the herbs prior to adding the potatoes and chicken. Thanks for posting. Made and reviewed for ZWT4.
