Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 4 slices Swiss cheese slices
- 1 can (10.5 ounces) cream of chicken soup
- 0.5 cups sour cream
- 0.5 teaspoons garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoons onion powder
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
- 0.5 cups Italian-seasoned breadcrumbs
- 2 tablespoons butter, melted
- 1 as needed cooking spray
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with cooking spray and set aside.
Place the chicken breasts in the prepared baking dish, arranging them in a single layer.
Season both sides of the chicken breasts with garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper.
Place one slice of Swiss cheese on top of each chicken breast.
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the cream of chicken soup and sour cream. Stir until smooth, then spread the mixture evenly over the chicken breasts and cheese.
In a separate small bowl, mix the Italian-seasoned breadcrumbs and melted butter until the breadcrumbs are evenly coated. Sprinkle this mixture over the creamy sauce on top of the chicken.
Cover the baking dish lightly with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes.
After 30 minutes, remove the aluminum foil and continue baking for an additional 15 minutes, or until the breadcrumbs are golden brown and the chicken is cooked through (internal temperature should reach 165°F or 74°C).
Remove the Swiss Chicken Bake from the oven and let it rest for 5 minutes before serving. Serve alongside your favorite side dishes such as rice, mashed potatoes, or steamed vegetables.
