5. Place the marinated chicken pieces into a baking dish. If you feel there is not enough sour cream and you want a richer marinade, you can pour a little more sour cream on top. Moreover, if there is still some marinade left in the bowl, pour it over the chicken—it will enhance the desired flavor.

7. Wrap everything in foil and bake in a preheated oven at 240 degrees. Think that's too hot? You're right. After 20 minutes, reduce the temperature to 190 degrees and wait another 20 minutes. Using this method, the chicken will turn out juicy and well-cooked.
