Chicken Royale

shared by Patty H. (Snowed in; feel the urge to cook; probably a big mistake because then I will want to eat it all. :)
Ingredients:
4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (I used 6-8 chicken tenders)
1/2 cup sour cream (I used the Smart Balance sour cream with the healthy omega 3's in it)
1 T. lemon juice
1 tsp. Worcestershire sauce
1/2 tsp. paprika
1/4 tsp. garlic powder
1 tsp. salt (I used the coarse Kosher salt)
1/8 tsp. pepper
1 1/4 cups dry bread crumbs
1/4 cup melted butter (again, I use Smart Balance stick butter)

Directions:
Note: The original recipe says to prepare this and let it set overnight in the refrigerator but I didn't and it still turned out moist and tender. I am posting the recipe as it was originally written.
1. Spray a 9x13 baking dish with nonstick spray.
2. Place the chicken in the baking dish.
3. Combine sour cream, lemon juice, Worcestershire sauce, paprika, garlic powder, salt and pepper.
4. Cover each piece of chicken with some of the mixture.
5. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight.
6. When ready to bake, cover each chicken piece with bread crumbs.
7. Spoon melted butter over chicken, taking care not to let butter accumulate on bottom of pan.
8. Bake at 350 degrees for 45 minutes.
9. Drizzle remaining butter on chicken and bake 15 minutes longer. (I forgot to go back and do this and they still turned out OK)
