Swiss Chicken is a comforting baked dish featuring tender boneless, skinless chicken breasts topped with melted Swiss cheese, creamy garlic-infused sauce, and a buttery herb stuffing crust. This recipe combines simple ingredients for a flavorful and satisfying meal perfect for weeknight dinners.

Ingredients

Scale

Chicken and Cheese

  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 1 ½ pounds)
  • 4 slices Swiss cheese

Sauce

  • 1 (10.5-ounce) can condensed cream of chicken soup
  • ⅓ cup chicken broth
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • ½ teaspoon onion powder

Stuffing Topping

  • 1 ½ cups herb stuffing mix
  • ¼ cup melted salted butter

Instructions

  1. Prepare the oven and dish: Preheat the oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit. Spray a 9 x 13-inch baking dish with nonstick cooking spray to prevent sticking.
  2. Layer the chicken and cheese: Place the 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts evenly in the bottom of the prepared baking dish. Lay one slice of Swiss cheese over each chicken breast.
  3. Make the sauce: In a medium bowl, whisk together the condensed cream of chicken soup, chicken broth, garlic powder, and onion powder until smooth and well combined.
  4. Spread sauce over chicken: Pour and spread the soup mixture evenly over the chicken breasts and Swiss cheese layers in the baking dish.
  5. Prepare stuffing topping: In another medium bowl, toss the herb stuffing mix with the melted salted butter until all the stuffing is coated.
  6. Top chicken with stuffing: Evenly distribute the buttered herb stuffing mixture over the top of the sauce-covered chicken breasts.
  7. Bake covered: Cover the baking dish tightly with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes. The foil helps keep the chicken moist during the initial baking phase.
  8. Finish baking uncovered: Remove the foil and bake for an additional 15 to 20 minutes. Continue baking until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit and the stuffing topping is browned and crisp.

Notes

  • Use a meat thermometer to ensure the chicken is safely cooked to 165°F.
  • For a crispier topping, you can broil the stuffing for 2-3 minutes after baking, watching carefully to prevent burning.
  • This dish pairs well with steamed vegetables or a simple green salad for a complete meal.
  • The recipe can be doubled and baked in a larger dish for more servings.
