    1. Preheat the Oven:
    – Set your oven to 400°F (200°C) and prepare a baking pan by spraying it with nonstick cooking spray.

    2. Prepare the Chicken:
    – In one shallow dish, whisk together the egg and 1/4 cup milk.
    – Place the crushed Ritz crackers in another dish, and the shredded cheddar cheese in a third.
    – Season the chicken breasts with salt and garlic pepper.
    – Dip each chicken breast first into the egg mixture, then coat with the shredded cheddar cheese.
    – Press the crushed Ritz crackers onto the cheese-covered chicken, making sure each piece is fully coated.
    – Arrange the prepared chicken on the baking pan.

    3. Bake:
    – Bake the chicken for 30 minutes, or until it’s fully cooked and the Ritz cracker coating is golden and crispy.

    4. Make the Creamy Sauce:
    – While the chicken bakes, melt the butter in a small saucepan over medium heat.
    – Stir in the cream of chicken soup, sour cream, and 1/4 cup milk.
    – Whisk until the sauce is smooth and heated through, forming a rich, creamy topping.

    5. Serve:
    – Serve the crispy Ritz cracker chicken hot, topped with the creamy cheddar sauce. This dish pairs beautifully with mashed potatoes or a fresh green salad.
