Ingredients

  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 3 lbs. total)
  • 4 slices Swiss cheese
  • 1 can condensed cream of chicken soup (10.75 oz) not diluted
  • ½ cup dry white wine
  • ½ cup slivered almonds

  • In a separate bowl, whisk together condensed soup and wine (or broth). Spoon or pour over chicken.
    1 can condensed cream of chicken soup (10.75 oz), ½ cup dry white wine
  • Bake, uncovered, for about 45 minutes - 1 hour, or until chicken is cooked through and reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees F. During the final 15 minutes of baking, baste with pan sauce and top with slivered almonds. Return to the oven to finish cooking and to allow the almonds to turn a toasted golden brown.
    ½ cup slivered almonds

Notes

Cooking Just for Two? Cut the ingredients in half and bake the chicken in an 8-inch square dish. The rest of the cooking instructions remain the same.
Recipe Variations:
  • Substitute chicken broth for the wine in your sauce.
  • Instead of almonds, try topping your chicken with pecans, walnuts or chopped hazelnuts.
  • Use Cream of Mushroom soup (or your other favorite flavor) instead of the Cream of Chicken soup.
  • For a quick-cooking dish, slice your large chicken breasts in half or purchase smaller 4-ounce chicken breasts. They will cook in about half of the time!
