Description

A rich and creamy Swiss Chicken Bake recipe that’s easy to prepare and perfect for a comforting main-course dinner. With tender chicken, Swiss cheese, and a flavorful stuffing topping, this dish is sure to be a crowd-pleaser.

Ingredients

Units Scale

Chicken and Cheese:

    • 6 large boneless skinless chicken breasts
    • 6 slices good quality Swiss cheese

Sauce:

    • 1 10 3/4 oz can cream of chicken soup
    • 1 cup chardonnay

Topping:

  • 1 1/2 cups boxed herbed stuffing mix (croutons or seasoned breadcrumbs can be used as alternatives)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Prepare the chicken: Spray a 9×13-inch baking dish with nonstick spray and lay the chicken breasts evenly on the bottom. Place one slice of Swiss cheese on top of each piece of chicken.
  3. Mix the sauce: In a small bowl, whisk together the cream of chicken soup and chardonnay until smooth and well combined.
  4. Assemble the dish: Pour the sauce mixture evenly over the chicken. Sprinkle the dry stuffing mix on top to create a flavorful crust.
  5. Bake the chicken: Cover the dish with foil and bake for 40 minutes. After 40 minutes, remove the cover and bake for an additional 20 minutes or until the stuffing is golden brown and the chicken is fully cooked. Make sure to check for doneness before serving.
  6. Serve and enjoy: Spoon the extra wine and stuffing mixture from the baking dish over the chicken. Serve warm and enjoy your delicious Creamy Swiss Chicken Bake.

Notes

  • You can use boneless chicken thighs, chicken cutlets, or tenderloins as alternatives to chicken breasts.
  • Feel free to experiment with different stuffing mixes or breadcrumbs for the topping.
  • If using croutons, add them closer to the end of baking time to prevent them from becoming soggy.
  • If you don’t have chardonnay, a different white wine or chicken broth can be used as a substitute.
  • Ensure the chicken is fully cooked by checking it with a meat thermometer (internal temperature should reach 165°F or 74°C).
