For a richer flavor, use freshly grated cheddar cheese instead of pre-shredded. Add a clove of minced garlic to the skillet with the butter for extra flavor. If you don't have condensed cream of cheddar cheese soup, you can substitute with a homemade cheddar cheese sauce. Feel free to add other vegetables to the dish, such as sliced mushrooms or onions, sautéed with the chicken.

01 Step

04 Step
Recipe View Preheat and Assemble: Preheat the oven broiler. Lightly grease a 9x13 inch baking dish.
05 Step
Recipe View Layer the Ingredients: Arrange the blanched green beans in the bottom of the prepared baking dish. Top with the seared chicken breasts, then evenly spread the condensed cheddar cheese soup over the chicken. Sprinkle with the reserved crumbled bacon, bread crumbs, and shredded Cheddar cheese.
06 Step
Recipe View Broil to Perfection: Broil for 8-10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted, bubbly, and golden brown, and the breadcrumbs are toasted. Watch carefully to prevent burning.
