Ingredients
- 3 chicken breasts, split in half (to make them thinner)
- pepper
- 6 slices swiss cheese- I like the real slices of swiss cheese rather than processed slices.
- 1 can cream of chicken soup
- 3/4 cup milk (I used 2%)
- 2 cups stuffing mix (like Stove Top Stuffing)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees, and get out baking dish or dishes. Choose your own adventure with casserole dish size based on how many people you are feeding. Because this recipe is for 4 servings, I divided it into two small baking dishes (these pyrex 6 cup containers with lids) so I could have 2 meals for two. However, you could make the whole recipe at once in a larger baking dish if you want to make the meal for 4 people.
- Make the stuffing mix according to the directions on the box. Set aside. Also, stir together the cream of chicken soup and milk in a bowl and set aside.
- Place the chicken breasts in the bottom of the baking dish (or dishes) and sprinkle with pepper. Lay a slice of cheese on each one. Top with the soup mixture and then the cooked stove top stuffing.
- Bake uncovered at 350 degrees for 50 minutes or until it is bubbly around the edges and the chicken is cooked through.

Step by Step Instructions for Chicken Swiss Casserole with Stuffing Topping
- Preheat your oven to 350 degrees and choose your own adventure on pan size — I split this recipe between two small Pyrex dishes for two easy meals for two, but you could just as easily use one larger dish to feed a family of four.
- While the oven heats, make your stuffing according to the box directions and set it aside, then stir together the cream of chicken soup and milk (it’s totally fine if it’s not perfectly smooth). Lay your chicken breasts in the bottom of the dish, sprinkle with pepper, and top each one with a torn slice of Swiss cheese. Pour the soup mixture over top, then crumble the cooked stuffing evenly over everything with your hands.
- Bake uncovered for 50 minutes, until it’s bubbly around the edges and the chicken is cooked through. You’ll end up with a creamy, cheesy casserole with the most flavorful crunchy top!

- If you’re cooking for two (like I am), you will LOVE these 6 cup covered casserole dishes from Pyrex! They are just the perfect size for 2 (and what I photographed this casserole in for this post).
- If you want to freeze this casserole ahead, just assemble the casserole up to the point before baking and put the lid on the casserole dish – or cover it with plastic wrap and then aluminum foil. When ready to use it, thaw it in the fridge overnight and then bake it uncovered for 50 minutes.
