Description

Swiss Chicken Casserole is the ultimate comfort food dinner. Juicy chicken breasts are layered with Swiss cheese, creamy garlic sauce, and topped with buttery stuffing. It’s a satisfying one-dish meal that’s easy to make and packed with cozy flavor.


Ingredients

Scale

6 boneless, skinless chicken breasts

¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese

¼ teaspoon salt

¼ teaspoon ground black pepper

12 slices Swiss cheese

1 (10.5 oz) can cream of chicken soup

1 cup chicken broth

2 garlic cloves, minced

½ cup melted butter

8 oz package Stove Top stuffing mix

1 teaspoon fresh minced parsley (optional)


Instructions

  • Preheat & prep the baking dish
    Preheat oven to 350 °F (175 °C). Spray a 9×13‑inch baking dish with nonstick cooking spray (or lightly oil it).

  • Mix sauce base
    In a large mixing bowl, combine the cream of chicken soup, chicken broth, and minced garlic. Stir until smooth and well blended.

  • Season the chicken
    Place the chicken breasts in the bottom of the prepared baking dish. Sprinkle grated Parmesan cheese, salt, and pepper over the breasts. Flip the chicken to coat both sides with the seasoning.

  • Add Swiss cheese layer
    Take 2 slices of Swiss cheese per chicken breast and lay them over the seasoned chicken so that each piece is covered in cheese.

  • Pour the sauce
    Carefully pour the soup‑broth‑garlic mixture over the cheese and chicken, spreading it gently so that it covers and seeps around the layers.

  • Top with stuffing mix
    Sprinkle the dry Stove Top stuffing mix evenly over the entire top of the casserole—covering the cheese and sauce layer.

  • Add melted butter
    Evenly drizzle the melted butter on top of the stuffing mix. The butter helps crisp the topping and meld the flavors.

  • Cover and bake
    Cover the dish with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for about 40 minutes.

  • Uncover & finish baking
    Remove the foil and bake an additional 15–20 minutes to allow the stuffing top to brown and the chicken to finish cooking. Use a meat thermometer to ensure the internal temperature of the chicken reaches 165 °F (75 °C).

  • Garnish & serve
    Optionally sprinkle with fresh minced parsley before serving. Serve hot and enjoy.

Notes

You can substitute chicken thighs or use different cheese varieties.

For a crispier top, broil for 1–2 minutes at the end.
