  3. Lay the chicken breasts flat on the bottom of a large casserole dish. Pour the cream of chicken soup mixture over the top and spread it evenly. Top with the remaining 1/4 cup parmesan cheese and top with two lemon slices on each chicken breast.

Notes

  • Tip 1: You can cut the chicken in half, chunks, or use chicken tenderloins in lieu of full chicken breasts to make serving easier. Cooking time may be reduced.
  • Tip 2: Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container for 3 to 4 days in the refrigerator or in the freezer for up to a month.
