Creamy Baked Swiss Chicken is an easy comfort food meal that the whole family will enjoy. It can be prepped in about 5 minutes and then it just needs about 50 minutes of hands off time in the oven. Serve it over rice with some green beans for a truly delicious dinner.
Creamy Swiss Chicken Bake Recipe
Boneless, skinless chicken breasts are seasoned with salt, pepper, and garlic powder and then placed in a baking dish. Cover them with swiss cheese slices and top the cheese with a mixture of mayonnaise, sour cream, and a little Thousand Island salad dressing. The Thousand Island Dressing gives just a touch of sweetness and if you are a lover of Reuben sandwiches, you will love the combination of Swiss cheese and Thousand Island in this baked chicken recipe.
Finally, sprinkle some Parmesan cheese on top and pop it in the oven to bake. The chicken bakes up moist and tender and there’s a creamy, cheesy layer on top that gets wonderfully golden and crispy on the outside. Creamy Baked Swiss Chicken is an easy dinner you’ll want to make again and again.
Make It Spicy
If you want to add some heat to this recipe, add a quarter to a half teaspoon of cayenne pepper to the mayonnaise mixture.
How To Serve
This cheesy chicken bake goe really well over white rice or noodles. I like ti with a side of Southern-Style Green Beans or a Creamy Tomato and Cucumber Salad.
Storage
Leftovers will keep in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 3 to 4 days.
