Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 4 slices Swiss cheese slices
- 10.5 ounces cream of chicken soup
- 1 cup sour cream
- 6 ounces box of stuffing mix (chicken flavored)
- 1 cup butter, melted
- 1 cup water
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder (optional)
Instructions
If using the oven, preheat it to 350°F (175°C). If using a crockpot, no preheating is necessary.
Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish (if using the oven) or the crockpot insert to prevent sticking.
Place the chicken breasts in a single layer in the dish or crockpot. Season both sides of the chicken with salt, pepper, and garlic powder (if using).
Place one slice of Swiss cheese on top of each chicken breast, covering it entirely.
In a mixing bowl, combine the cream of chicken soup and sour cream until smooth. Pour this mixture evenly over the chicken and cheese.
In another bowl, mix the stuffing mix, melted butter, and water until the stuffing is fully moistened. Spoon the stuffing mixture evenly on top of the cream sauce layer.
For crockpot cooking: Cover and cook on low for 4-5 hours, or until the chicken is fully cooked and tender.
For oven cooking: Cover the baking dish with foil and bake for 45 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 15 minutes to brown the top.
Remove from the crockpot or oven and let sit for 5 minutes before serving to allow the layers to set.
Serve warm and enjoy with a side of vegetables or a green salad for a complete meal.
