Pat the chicken dry with paper towels and season on each side with salt and pepper. Lay the chicken breast pieces in a single layer on the bottom of the prepared baking pan. Layer the Swiss cheese slices over the chicken. In a medium bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, yogurt, 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese, salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Spread this mixture over the chicken and cheese. Top with remaining 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese.
Bake for 45 minutes, until the chicken is cooked through and the sauce is hot and bubbly. Serve over hot, steamed rice.
Really good flavor, kid-friendly, easy...great to whip up quickly for dinner! The sauce ends up tasting a little like alfredo sauce, which my kids love, so that was a bonus.

Looks yummy. Maybe my kids would eat and like it unlike the chicken with pistachios and coconut rice I made last week from that recipe blog. I liked it but I'll have to give this one a try knowing it's tried and true by you.
