Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit (175 degrees Celsius).
Season the chicken with salt and pepper on both sides. In a large skillet over medium/high heat, brown the chicken on both sides in the oil.
Transfer the browned chicken to an oven-safe 8" x 8" casserole dish that has been sprayed with cooking spray.
Whisk together the soup, soy sauce, beer, and garlic in a medium-sized bowl and pour the mix evenly over the browned chicken in the casserole dish.
Bake in a preheated oven for 40 minutes..
Remove the casserole from the oven and top with sliced almonds. Return the chicken back into the oven and continue cooking until an instant read thermometer reads 165- degrees (approximately 5-10 minutes).
Remove, cool slightly, and serve.
