The history of the dish traces back to the tradition of baking meat with cheese, which is widely spread in Russian and European cuisine. The taste harmoniously balances the softness of chicken, the acidity of tomatoes, and the richness of sour cream sauce with aromatic herbs and garlic. It can be served with sides like mashed potatoes, vegetables, or fresh salads to create a complete meal. Baked under a golden crust, the fillet becomes especially juicy, while melted cheese gives it a pleasant texture. This is an excellent dish for lovers of simple yet refined flavors.
