Ingredients
- 4 pieces chicken breasts (boneless and skinless)
- 4 slices Swiss cheese slices
- 1 can cream of chicken soup (condensed)
- 0.5 cup milk
- 0.5 cup Italian-style seasoned breadcrumbs
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter (melted)
- 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley (chopped, optional for garnish)
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
Step 2
Place the chicken breasts in the baking dish, ensuring they are evenly spaced apart.
Step 3
Season the chicken with garlic powder, black pepper, and salt on both sides.
Step 4
Lay a slice of swiss cheese over each chicken breast, covering it completely.
Step 5
In a medium bowl, whisk together the cream of chicken soup and milk until smooth. Pour the mixture evenly over the chicken breasts and cheese.
Step 6
Sprinkle the seasoned breadcrumbs evenly over the top to create a crispy layer.
Step 7
Drizzle the melted butter over the breadcrumbs to help with browning and add flavor.
Step 8
Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 40-45 minutes, or until the chicken breasts are fully cooked through (internal temperature should reach 165°F/74°C).
Step 9
Remove the dish from the oven and let it rest for 5 minutes. Garnish with fresh parsley if desired.
Step 10
Serve warm with your favorite side dishes such as rice, mashed potatoes, or steamed vegetables.
