A delicious family recipe that is always a hit. Pretty and tasty enough to serve to dinner guests. It has a little kick to it from Serrano chiles and you can add more or less, or leave them out completely... it is still yummy!

A delicious chicken recipe for tonight's dinner. This takes a little time to cook, but it's so easy and very tasty. Serrano chilis definitely bring the heat, but the sour cream adds a tang and creaminess. Chopped parsley on top for a pop of fresh flavor and you have a fantastic dish.
