Step 4: Top with Cheese
Sprinkle the shredded cheese generously over the soup layer. Make sure every corner is covered—this is where that irresistible, bubbly topping comes from.
Step 5: Bake to Perfection
Place the dish in the oven and bake for 35–40 minutes, or until the chicken is fully cooked and the cheese is melted, bubbly, and lightly golden on top.
If you like a slightly crisp top, switch the oven to broil for the last 2–3 minutes, keeping a close eye on it.
Step 6: Rest and Serve
Remove from the oven and let the dish rest for 5 minutes. This allows the sauce to thicken slightly and makes serving easier.
