Description
This Swiss Chicken Casserole is a comforting yet elegant dish made with tender chicken breasts, creamy sauce, melted Swiss cheese, and a buttery stuffing topping. It’s easy to prepare and perfect for both weeknights and entertaining.
Ingredients
- 6 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 6 slices Swiss cheese
- 1/2 cup butter
- 1 (8 oz) package dry bread stuffing mix
- 1 (10.75 oz) can condensed cream of chicken soup
- 1/4 cup chicken broth
- Salt and pepper, to taste
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
- Arrange chicken breasts in a single layer, season with salt and pepper, and place one slice of Swiss cheese over each breast.
- In a small saucepan, melt butter over low heat. Stir in stuffing mix until coated, then set aside.
- In a bowl, whisk together cream of chicken soup and chicken broth until smooth. Pour evenly over chicken.
- Sprinkle the buttery stuffing mixture over the top.
- Cover the dish with foil and bake for 50–60 minutes, until chicken is fully cooked and no longer pink inside.
- Remove foil during the last 5–10 minutes of baking to crisp the stuffing topping.
Notes
- Swap Swiss cheese for provolone, mozzarella, or cheddar for variety.
- Stir sour cream into the soup mixture for extra creaminess.
- Vegetable broth can be used instead of chicken broth.
- Add sautéed mushrooms or broccoli for more vegetables.
- Can be assembled ahead and baked later, or frozen before baking.
