How do you make braised chicken breast in sour cream? Cut the chicken into pieces and season it all with salt and pepper. Brown the chicken pieces in vegetable oil until they get a nice crust. Thin the sour cream with water (70 ml), add the garlic and flour, and stir it all together. Pour this sauce over the chicken and add the nutmeg. Lower the heat, cover, and braise. Once the meat is tender, turn off the heat and let the dish rest under the lid.

Any oil is only good up to a certain temperature — its smoke point, where it begins to burn and form harmful compounds, including carcinogens. For how to gauge frying temperature, choose the best oil for frying, and which oils are better avoided altogether, read here.
