Swiss Chicken

Sometimes you just need a good dinner that’s simple to make and yummy to eat. This recipe for Swiss chicken delivers both and you only need to check the oven once or twice. This is a one pot dish, which means you just need a side dish or two or veggies and you’re all set for your evening meal. The name of this dish comes from Swiss cheese in the recipe which gives the chicken a wonderful flavor.

To begin making this dish place 6 chicken breasts into a casserole dish. If they are very large you may want to cut them butterfly style into 2 pieces each. Put one slice of Swiss cheese over each piece of chicken.

Then pour over the chicken a blend of white wine and cream of mushroom soup. This would be an ideal way to use up the last little bit of wine leftover from a party. After that simply top the chicken with a package of boxed stuffing. It’s so easy, yet it tastes so good.

Swiss Chicken

You’ll need to bake this covered for 40 minutes before cooking the rest of the way uncovered. This is so that the stuffing can crisp up just a little on top. Aside from uncovering the chicken and then checking to make sure it’s at 165˚F there’s nothing else to fuss with in this recipe. There’s no turning or basting and it comes together pretty much on its own.

Swiss Chicken

Serve each piece of chicken with the stuffing piled on top and then sauce from the pan poured over that. Serve with a salad or some green beans for a really easy chicken dinner that come complete with its own piquant sauce and baked stuffing. Hard to believe that it only takes 6 ingredients to make a meal this good.
