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:
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- 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.
- Slice the Swiss cheese into thin slices and layer them over each chicken breast, ensuring they are well-covered.
- In a medium bowl, combine the mayonnaise, sour cream, grated Parmesan cheese, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Mix until well-combined and smooth.
- Spread the creamy mixture evenly over the chicken breasts and cheese. Use a spatula to ensure it covers the chicken completely.
- Dot the top of each piece of chicken with a small amount of butter to help it brown and add extra flavor.
- 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).
- 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.
- For a fresh touch, you can garnish with chopped parsley or chives.
- 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.
