Ingredients

• 4 pieces boneless, skinless chicken breasts
• 4 slices Swiss cheese
• 10.5 oz cream of chicken soup
• 0.5 cups sour cream
• 0.75 cups seasoned breadcrumbs
• 3 tbsp unsalted butter
• 1 tsp garlic powder
• 1 tsp onion powder
• 0.5 tsp salt
• 0.5 tsp black pepper
• 1 tbsp olive oil
• 2 tbsp fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

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

Step 2

Season the chicken breasts with garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper on both sides.

Step 3

In the prepared baking dish, lay the seasoned chicken breasts in a single layer.

Step 4

Place one slice of Swiss cheese on top of each chicken breast, ensuring it is fully covered.

Step 5

In a small mixing bowl, combine the cream of chicken soup and sour cream. Stir until smooth and creamy.

Step 6

Spread the soup and sour cream mixture evenly over the chicken and Swiss cheese using a spatula.

Step 7

Sprinkle the seasoned breadcrumbs evenly over the top of the dish, creating a layer of crunchy topping.

Step 8

Melt the unsalted butter in the microwave or on the stovetop, and drizzle it over the breadcrumbs for added richness.

Step 9

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

Step 10

After 25 minutes, remove the foil and bake uncovered for an additional 10 minutes, or until the breadcrumbs turn golden and the chicken is fully cooked through (165°F internal temperature).

Step 11

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

Step 12

Optional: Garnish with freshly chopped parsley for a pop of color and extra flavor. Serve hot alongside steamed vegetables or rice.
