Swiss chicken bake with parmesan and garlic

Swiss Chicken Bake is a delicious, creamy and cheesy dish that's perfect for a delightful dinner. This recipe combines tender chicken breasts with the rich flavors of mayo, sour cream, parmesan, swiss cheese, garlic, and a hint of butter for a truly comforting meal.

Ingredients:

4 chicken breasts
470g
4 oz swiss cheese
110g
1/2 cup mayonnaise salad dressing
120g
1/2 cup sour cream
120g
3/4 cup grated parmesan cheese
60g
1/2 tsp salt
3g
1/2 tsp black pepper
1.05g
1 tsp butter
4.73g
1 tsp garlic powder
3.10g

Instructions:

1. Preheat Oven:
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
2. Prepare Chicken:
- Place the 4 chicken breasts in a single layer in a baking dish. It's best if they are of even thickness for more consistent cooking.
3. Add Swiss Cheese:
- Slice the Swiss cheese into thin slices and layer them over each chicken breast, ensuring they are well-covered.
4. Mix the Creamy Topping:
- In a medium bowl, combine the mayonnaise, sour cream, grated Parmesan cheese, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Mix until well-combined and smooth.
5. Top the Chicken:
- Spread the creamy mixture evenly over the chicken breasts and cheese. Use a spatula to ensure it covers the chicken completely.
6. Add a Dab of Butter:
- Dot the top of each piece of chicken with a small amount of butter to help it brown and add extra flavor.
7. Bake:
- Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 35-40 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through and the top is golden and bubbly. The internal temperature of the chicken should reach 165°F (74°C).
8. Rest and Serve:
- Remove the dish from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes before serving. This allows the juices to redistribute, making the chicken moist and flavorful.
9. Optional Garnish:
- For a fresh touch, you can garnish with chopped parsley or chives.
10. Enjoy:
- Serve the Swiss chicken bake hot. It pairs well with steamed vegetables, rice, or a fresh garden salad.

Tips:

- Pounding the chicken breasts to an even thickness can help them cook evenly.

- For added flavor, marinate the chicken breasts in a little bit of olive oil, garlic, and lemon juice for 30 minutes prior to cooking.

- Use freshly grated parmesan cheese for the best flavor and texture.

- You can also add some fresh herbs like thyme or rosemary to the mix for an extra burst of flavor.

- Let the baked chicken rest for a few minutes before serving to allow the juices to redistribute within the meat.
