Cilantro Chicken

6-8 Frozen Boneless Skinless Chicken Breasts
1 bunch of Cilantro (chopped finely)
1/2 cup Sour Cream
1/3 cup Good Seasons Italian Dressing
Grated Parmesan Cheese
Salt and Pepper

Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Place frozen chicken breasts on a baking dish or pan and bake for 30 minutes. Test for doneness. Chicken should not be served at less than 170 degrees when tested in the center of the breast. Place baked chicken on serving dish or plate. Sprinkle with a generous bed of chopped cilantro. Top with a dollop of sour cream and a tablespoon of italian dressing on each piece of chicken. Sprinkle with parmesan cheese then add salt and pepper. Serve immediately.

This is one of the simplest recipes. It's very fresh and tasty. My mother-in-law made something similar at a dinner party and I made my own twist. Her recipe used the cilantro pureed with a clove of garlic. Try it both ways and let me know what you think.
