Ingredients

• 4 pieces boneless, skinless chicken breasts
• 3 cups fresh green beans, trimmed
• 4 slices Swiss cheese slices
• 1 can (10.5 oz) cream of mushroom soup
• 0.5 cups sour cream
• 0.25 cups milk
• 1 teaspoons garlic powder
• 1 teaspoons onion powder
• 0.5 teaspoons salt
• 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
• 2 tablespoons butter
• 0.5 cups panko breadcrumbs
• 0.25 cups Parmesan cheese, grated
• 1 as needed cooking spray

Directions

Step 1

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

Step 2

Bring a pot of water to a boil and blanch the green beans for 2-3 minutes until they are just tender. Drain and set them aside.

Step 3

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

Step 4

Heat 1 tablespoon of butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Sear the chicken breasts for 2-3 minutes per side until lightly golden (they don't need to be cooked through). Transfer the chicken to the prepared baking dish.

Step 5

Layer the blanched green beans evenly over the chicken breasts, followed by the slices of Swiss cheese.

Step 6

In a mixing bowl, combine the cream of mushroom soup, sour cream, milk, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Stir until smooth, then pour the mixture evenly over the chicken, beans, and cheese.

Step 7

Melt the remaining 1 tablespoon of butter in a small saucepan or in the microwave. In a small bowl, combine the melted butter with panko breadcrumbs and grated Parmesan cheese.

Step 8

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

Step 9

Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the chicken is fully cooked (internal temperature of 165°F or 74°C) and the topping is golden brown.

Step 10

Let the casserole rest for 5 minutes before serving. Serve hot and enjoy this hearty and delicious meal!
