Ingredients

• 4 pieces Boneless, skinless chicken breasts
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 1 teaspoon Black pepper
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 can (10.5 oz) Cream of chicken soup
• 1 cup Sour cream
• 1 cup Shredded cheddar cheese
• 2 cups Frozen mixed vegetables (thawed)
• 1 cup Breadcrumbs
• 2 tablespoons Butter (melted)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish and set aside.

Step 2

Season the chicken breasts on both sides with salt and pepper.

Step 3

Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the chicken breasts for 2-3 minutes per side until lightly browned (they do not need to be fully cooked). Remove from heat and set aside.

Step 4

In a medium mixing bowl, combine the cream of chicken soup, sour cream, and shredded cheddar cheese. Stir in the thawed mixed vegetables.

Step 5

Spread half of the soup and vegetable mixture evenly on the bottom of the prepared baking dish.

Step 6

Lay the seared chicken breasts on top of the mixture, then evenly spread the remaining soup and vegetable mixture over the chicken.

Step 7

In a small bowl, combine the breadcrumbs and melted butter until the breadcrumbs are evenly coated.

Step 8

Sprinkle the breadcrumb mixture evenly over the top of the casserole.

Step 9

Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through (internal temperature of 165°F / 74°C) and the topping is golden brown and crispy.

Step 10

Let the casserole rest for 5 minutes before serving. Enjoy your Easy Layered Chicken Bake!
