Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 10.5 oz cream of chicken soup
- 0.5 cup sour cream
- 4 slices Swiss cheese slices
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 0.5 cup breadcrumbs
- 2 teaspoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley (chopped, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with a small amount of olive oil or cooking spray.
Season the chicken breasts with garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper on all sides.
In a medium bowl, combine the cream of chicken soup and sour cream. Mix until smooth and set aside.
Lay the chicken breasts in the prepared baking dish in a single layer and evenly cover each breast with a slice of Swiss cheese.
Pour the soup and sour cream mixture over and around the chicken breasts, spreading it evenly with a spatula.
In a small skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the breadcrumbs and stir continuously until they are golden brown and toasted, about 2-3 minutes. Once toasted, sprinkle the breadcrumbs evenly over the chicken and sauce mixture.
Drizzle the top with olive oil for added crispiness.
Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes.
Remove the foil and continue baking for another 10 minutes, or until the chicken is fully cooked (internal temperature of 165°F or 74°C) and the sauce is bubbling.
Remove from the oven, garnish with chopped parsley, and serve hot.
