Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with cooking spray.
Bring a pot of water to a boil and blanch the green beans for 2-3 minutes until they are just tender. Drain and set them aside.
Season the chicken breasts with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder on both sides.
Heat 1 tablespoon of butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Sear the chicken breasts for 2-3 minutes per side until lightly golden (they don't need to be cooked through). Transfer the chicken to the prepared baking dish.
Layer the blanched green beans evenly over the chicken breasts, followed by the slices of Swiss cheese.
In a mixing bowl, combine the cream of mushroom soup, sour cream, milk, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Stir until smooth, then pour the mixture evenly over the chicken, beans, and cheese.
Melt the remaining 1 tablespoon of butter in a small saucepan or in the microwave. In a small bowl, combine the melted butter with panko breadcrumbs and grated Parmesan cheese.
Sprinkle the breadcrumb mixture evenly over the top of the casserole.
Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the chicken is fully cooked (internal temperature of 165°F or 74°C) and the topping is golden brown.
Let the casserole rest for 5 minutes before serving. Serve hot and enjoy this hearty and delicious meal!
