Swiss Chicken

Non stick cooking spray
Chicken tenders
Sliced Swiss Cheese
Cream of Chicken soup
about 1/4 cup milk or water
bread crumbs or dry stuffing mix (1 to 1-1/2 cups)
1/4 cup butter, melted

Spray 9 x 13 pan with non-stick cooking spray.
Lay out thawed chicken tenders in a single layer in sprayed pan.
Cover chicken tenders with sliced Swiss Cheese.  Make a single layer of cheese slices.  This will take between 4 and 8 slices (depending on size of slice)
Mix the cream of chicken soup with milk or water (about 1/4 of an empty soup can)
Spread the soup mixture over the sliced cheese.
Mix melted butter with crumbs or stuffing (I used pepperidge farms stuffing - crumbled, not cubed)
Sprinkle crumbs over soup.
Cover pan with foil and bake for 45 minutes at 350 degrees.
Remove from oven.

Note:  There is not enough soup mix for a gravy; but it is a good sauce on the chicken
