Easy Creamy Swiss Chicken Casserole
This easy chicken bake is made with just a few ingredients, and the prep time is fast, so dinner will be ready in no time! With only 5 ingredients in this Swiss Chicken Bake recipe, I sometimes like to add extra things without adding any stress—cremini mushrooms for a little more texture–they taste great in the white wine sauce, sweet caramelized onions , or sautéed garlic to up the savoriness.

How to Store this Creamy Chicken Bake
Store leftovers in an airtight container and keep it in the refrigerator up to 3 days. Or freeze up to 2 months.
To reheat, you can quickly microwave it, or heat in the oven until the chicken reaches 165°F. Thaw first if it’s frozen.
Serving Suggestions
I recommend serving this creamy, cheesy chicken with rice or noodles and some vegetables. This easy and quick Instant Pot Basmati Rice is perfect to soak up all the amazing flavors. Swiss Chicken also tastes great with a side of vegetarian stuffing , some creamy Instant Pot scalloped potatoes , a delicious corn casserole , and even chewy breadsticks will taste great.

This Essential Grocery List is an absolute life saver for my family on the busy weeks. When I started this journey to learn how to cook, I quickly realized that the first step in cooking is having staple ingredients on hand. I want to avoid having to run out to the grocery store every single time I prepare a new recipe. Having a well-stocked pantry has made my life in the kitchen so much simpler, because when it’s time to cook, I have what I need.
Essential Grocery List
It’s so helpful to have a basic grocery list to help me remember which foods to buy at the store. This food shopping list is my go-to!
It’s better to stock up on things like grains, seasonings and spices, baking essentials, oils, condiments, canned and frozen foods, etc. so I can just grab them when I need them. These things have a long shelf life , so I keep them in my kitchen for convenience.
However, I do have to go to the supermarket sometimes, and there’s a way to make that trip easy and hassle-free: I keep a grocery list! If I go in blindly, I’ll leave with things I don’t need, and nothing that actually helps me prepare a good meal.
In the list below, I’ve compiled everything I always have on my stock-up grocery list.
I’ve got you covered! I created an easy grocery list filled with all of the essentials. Plus there’s a free printable version that you can take with you to the grocery store. It has everything you need to stock your pantry, your freezer, and your refrigerator.

What to Buy at the Grocery Store
