Leicester produced a dominant display against Swansea in Michael Appleton’s first game in caretaker charge to record their first league win in seven.
The visitors created a host of chances and took the lead when Federico Fernandez headed into his own net from Riyad Mahrez’s whipped cross.
A swift counter-attack saw Shinji Okazaki score Leicester’s second early in the second half, before Alfie Mawson hooked in from close range to spark hopes of a Swansea revival.
But the sluggish hosts struggled to create scoring opportunities as they slumped to a fourth defeat from five home league games this season.
Victory lifts Leicester up to 13th in the table, while Swansea drop to 15th, level on points with Stoke in the relegation zone.
