Swiss Chicken





This is yummy!  My friend suggested it one day when I was complaining about not knowing what to cook for dinner.  I have made it a few times since. It's very quick and easy to throw together and I usually have everything on hand, so it's a no-brainer.  I have made it with provolone cheese and it was just as yummy.

I don't cut up my chicken into smaller pieces. I just put in one breast for each person I am serving and put a piece of cheese on top of it. I guess if your chicken breasts are HUGE, you may want to cut them up.

Tyler loves it because he is a sucker for Thanksgiving dinner and it makes him feel all "Thanksgiving-ish" anytime of the year.

SWISS CHICKEN


3 chicken breasts, cut into smaller pieces
3-4 slices Swiss cheese (or pepper-jack cheese)
1 can condensed cream of chicken soup
1 cup milk
1 box Stove Top Stuffing, chicken flavored (shake to redistribute seasonings)
1/4 cup melted butter

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees and spray a casserole dish, close to 9x13. 

2. Place chicken breasts in a greased casserole dish.

3. Top chicken with slices of Swiss cheese. 

4. In a small bowl, mix soup and milk until blended.

5. Pour soup mixture over chicken and cheese.

6. Top chicken with dry stuffing mix.

7.  Drizzle stuffing mix with melted butter.

8. Baked covered with foil at 350 degrees for 45 minutes.  Remove foil and bake 5-10 minutes longer. Serves 6.

*note~ I have accidentally left off the foil cover and the breading will over-brown and get too crunchy.  Don't forget to cover it:)
