Wow...this is a great recipe. The chicken was very moist and juicy. I used fat-free sour cream and hot paprika. It was an easy meal to prepare with great results. Thanks, riff, for sharing your secret. The crunch onions were a brilliant idea.

Delicious and easy meal! The onions really give this a punchg of flavor. I used chicken tenders, so I needed double the amount of topping (more surface area), and I used plain yogurt instead of sour cream. The chicken was so moist and had a great little crunch.
