Swiss Chicken Casserole
Casseroles are so fun to make because they’re so simple. I love throwing all these great ingredients together into one dish, baking, and then having an entire meal ready. It’s genius!
The boxed stuffing mix is my favorite part of this, mostly because I just love stuffing. I mean who doesn’t right? It’s a beloved Thanksgiving side dish…that seems to get ignored the rest of the year! So having another way to use it in this creamy swiss chicken bake is awesome. It add this herby, delicious texture to the chicken. So good!
How to Make this Swiss Chicken Bake
So this creamy chicken bake is essentially just baked chicken with cream of chicken, stuffing, and cheese. You really don’t need much to make an amazing meal! Prep time is so quick, then you can just let it bake to perfection.
- Place the chicken breasts into a 9×13 baking dish, and place a slice of swiss cheese on top of each piece.
- In a bowl, whisk together cream of chicken and wine, then pour it over the chicken, and top it off with the box of dry stuffing mix.
- Cover the baking dish, and bake for 40 minutes at 350°F. Then continue cooking UNcovered for another 20 minutes. Be sure to check the internal temperature of the chicken to know when it’s done. (Chicken should be cooked to 165°F)
All done! Serve a piece of chicken and bit of extra stuffing on the side, and dig in. If you need some extra side dishes, try steamed broccoli, mixed veggies, rice, or potatoes. Anything goes with this chicken casserole!

I’m happy to hear you both love it!! Can’t go wrong with an early Thanksgiving!!
My daughter loves it! She said it’s the best thing I’ve made & it’s like having Thanksgiving early.
Thanks, Cheryl!!
They’re the best!
So glad to hear your family loved it! Thanks, Aimee!
This is absolutely amazing week night dinner !
You just reminded me that I made this dish a while ago. Instead of sprinkling the dry stuffing mix on top, I prepared it as directed on the package, b/c we love stuffing, & I know that my family would have complained…. had I only sprinkled the dry stuffing mix over the top. I also took the time to sauté a few mushrooms, diced onion & celery, & a grated carrot, and mixed that into the prepared stuffing mixture before spreading it over the casserole. The dish turned out super tasty, and everyone loved it, so I’ve made it many times since. I used Heart Healthy canned soup, and it was still very delicious. BTW, I stirred in 1/4 tsp. of dried thyme into the canned soup, just b/c thyme compliments chicken very nicely. Thanks for your great recipe, which I was able to make ‘my own’.
This is the PERFECT week night dinner! Seriously sooo delicious!
The family gobbled this one up so fast, thanks for a delicious meal!
I am always up for a creamy chicken recipe!
This recipe was a slam dunk from the first time I made it!! Thanks for the recipe!
So delicious and so easy!!
Made for Mother’s Day & the family really loved it-very tasty ????
Love your changes and so glad you loved it!! YAY!
This was sooooo good ! I changed it a little ,however I used cream of mushroom only instead of the wine and the cream of chicken ! But it was sooo good :) definitely making this often !
Hey Carol, I’m not sure which pic/recipe you mean? This recipe I only used swiss. You could use pepper jack if you prefer that cheese however. Hope you love the recipe!
The original picture with recipe was with pepper jack cheese and not swiss. Which one do you use for this recipe?
Did you use condensed cream of chicken or the actual soup ?
Wow, these look and sound heavenly! I am also a fan of this recipes…
I made this over the weekend, and it was very good. I used the less sodium soup and chicken broth instead of the wine. I also cut up two large chicken breasts into 6 smaller pieces and had enough for dinner for 2 and left overs for 2…. it was a hit. Will definitely make this again!

I always love quick and easy recipes. This looks like some good ol’ fashioned comfort food.
Can you use any other liquid in place of the cup of wine? It sounds delicious, but don’t care for using wine.
