This Swiss Chicken is great for one of those busy nights! Just throw this chicken in the oven for a quick and easy meal.
SWISS CHICKEN
I’m back. I survived the St. George marathon. It was brutal. It was unusually hot for this time of year and the heat sucked the life out of me. My Ipod froze right from the get go. It’s happened once before and decided to happen once again at the start of the marathon. I was stuck on two ABBA songs for the whole race. I officially never want to hear ABBA again.
“Dancing Queen” isn’t exactly the best song to get you motivated. Guess I can checkmarathon off the bucket list. Check.
A lot of you guys emailedme and said you were running it too. How didyou guysdo?

I swore at mile 24 that I would never run again. But…now I’m thinking of all the things that I could have done better and how I can shave off time next time….so I guess my marathon days may not be over.
Yes. I know. I need my head checked.
Since I still can barely walk because I’m so sore, I was thinking of an easy dinner that still tastes good. Even I can hobble around the kitchen to make this easy swiss chicken. It’s so simple but has great flavor. My sister has been making it for years but I saw it over at Real Mom Kitchen and was reminded of its yummy simplicity.

Prep Time: 10 minutes mins
Cook Time: 40 minutes mins
Total Time: 50 minutes mins
Servings: 6 servings
Ingredients
- 6-8 chicken breasts
- 6-8 slices Swiss cheese
- 1 can cream of mushroom soup, (or cream of chicken)
- 1 cup milk
- 1 (6 ounce box) Stove Top Stuffing
- 1/4 cup butter, melted
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Pound chicken breast to even out the thickness of the chicken. You can place the chicken between to layers of saran wrap and use a rolling pin or a meat mallet if you have one. If I buy the Costco chicken breasts I just slice them in half horizontally and skip the meat pounding step.
Place chicken breasts in a sprayed 9 x 13 inch baking dish.
Top chicken with the slices of Swiss cheese.
In a small bowl, mix soup and milk until well blended.
Pour soup mixture over chicken.
Top the chicken with the dry stuffing mix. You may not need all of it. Just make sure you have an even layer. Drizzle stuffing with melted butter.
Baked covered with foil for 35-45 minutes. Remove foil and bake 5-10 minutes longer. Serves 6-8.

Is the top supposed to be crunchy? I’ve made this many times and the top has always been crunchy. I thought the stuffing mix would soften a bit, but it doesn’t. Even if I cover with foil when baking. Just wondering. I love this recipe anyway!

Thanks for the tip on cutting the Costco chicken horizontally! Worked great and less messy than pounding those thick things, lol!

Question: when you say a can of mushroom (or chicken) soup, are you talking the little individual cans or the big, family size cans? I’ve got this wrong before and want to make sure.

I’m talking the little cans (10 3/4 ounce).

St. George is my home town. I miss lots of things about it but for sure the heat is not one of them. I admire you for running it, it would probably kill me.

I cannot believe you ran a marathon and had the same 2 songs playing over and over again! You are one tough cookie! When I ran my 2 5K’s this year I had to have different songs playing! Go you!

Congrats on the marathon! That is fantastic! I fancy myself a runner too, I just don’t think I have it in me to do a full marathon though! After 13.1 my goose is cooked! That chicken looks great! I know I have made a slightly different version, but it has been a while.

Wow. That is all I have to say about running a marathon. I don’t even have a bucket list, that way, I don’t have to worry about doing anything like that! 🙂 Anyway, I never have heard of this one (big surprise since I have repelled cooking all of my life). I will definitely have to try this one.

I did try to look for you at the marathon even though you said not to. 🙂 Shocking that I couldn’t spot someone I’ve never met when mixed in with 7,400 other people! 😉 The heat SUCKED and it was a really hard race. I struggled…HARD core!
Anyway, going to try out your new recipe as I pretty much trust ANYTHING that gets posted on your blog! yum!

congratulations on the marathon! once you do one…you will always want to do more. try the disney one in orlando!
i love this recipe since it fits my critera of ~ 5 ingredients and 1-2 steps…. i use the small pieces of chicken (?chicken tenders?) and so skip any steps with manipulating chicken. works fine to start with frozen chicken as well.
and its delicious- thanks for passing it on! -

Check out this link I thought it would put a smile on your face!

Christy! Love the new look of the blog…and the cute chicky at the top TOTALLY looks like a cartoon YOU! And I have to say…Scott and I were taking bets that you would do another marathon! GO FOR IT! Scott’s trying to get me to do it next year…that may take a miracle!
So fun to see you this weekend!

I just made this on Sunday when my daughter and family came by after church. A friend brought it to a pot luck dinner we had here last year and we all just loved it! Easy, yummy and comforting 🙂
