|---|---|---|
| Chicken (breasts or thighs) | 2–3 pounds | Boneless is best |
| Cream of mushroom soup | 1 can (10.5 oz) | Cream of chicken works as a swap |

👩🍳 Instructions
Step 1: Prep the chicken
Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
Lightly grease a baking dish.
Arrange chicken in a single layer.
Season with salt, pepper, and garlic powder.
Step 2: Add creamy layer
Spread the cream of mushroom soup evenly over the chicken.
Coat each piece well to keep it moist while baking.
Step 3: Add cheese
Place Swiss cheese slices over the chicken pieces.
Cover most of the surface for a melted, golden topping.
(If using shredded mozzarella, sprinkle it evenly.)
Step 4: Bake
Cover with foil and bake for 25–30 minutes.
Remove foil and continue baking another 10–15 minutes until bubbly and lightly golden.
Chicken should reach an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
Step 5: Rest and serve
Let it sit for about 5 minutes before serving.
Serve warm over rice, mashed potatoes, or pasta.
