Ingredients

• 4 pieces boneless, skinless chicken breasts
• 4 slices Swiss cheese slices
• 1 can (10.5 ounces) cream of chicken soup
• 0.25 cups milk
• 0.5 teaspoons garlic powder
• 1 teaspoons dried Italian seasoning
• 0.5 teaspoons salt
• 0.25 teaspoons ground black pepper
• 0.5 cups buttered breadcrumbs (optional)
• 2 cups cooked white or brown rice (optional, for serving)

Directions

Step 1

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

Step 2

Place the chicken breasts into the prepared baking dish in an even layer.

Step 3

Lay one slice of Swiss cheese over each chicken breast, ensuring it covers the surface.

Step 4

In a medium bowl, whisk together the cream of chicken soup, milk, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper until smooth.

Step 5

Pour the soup mixture evenly over the chicken and cheese, ensuring each piece is coated with the sauce.

Step 6

If using, sprinkle the buttered breadcrumbs evenly over the top of the dish for added texture and flavor.

Step 7

Cover the dish loosely with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes.

Step 8

Remove the foil and continue baking for another 15 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through (internal temperature of 165°F/74°C) and the sauce is bubbly.

Step 9

Remove the dish from the oven and let it rest for 5 minutes before serving.

Step 10

Serve the Swiss chicken alongside cooked rice, if desired, and enjoy!
