Description

A cozy and delicious Chicken Cordon Bleu Casserole that combines shredded chicken, diced ham, and Swiss cheese, topped with a creamy sauce and crispy breadcrumbs.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 cups cooked rotisserie chicken, shredded
  • 1 cup cooked ham, diced
  • 1 cup Swiss cheese, shredded
  • 1 cup breadcrumbs
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1 cup chicken broth
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish with cooking spray or olive oil.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded chicken, diced ham, and Swiss cheese. Mix well and set aside.
  3. In another bowl, whisk together the heavy cream, chicken broth, Dijon mustard, garlic powder, onion powder, thyme, salt, and pepper until well combined.
  4. Pour half of the cream mixture into the bottom of the prepared baking dish.
  5. Layer the chicken and ham mixture evenly over the cream mixture in the baking dish.
  6. Pour the remaining cream mixture over the top of the chicken and ham layer.
  7. In a small bowl, combine the breadcrumbs with olive oil, mixing until the breadcrumbs are evenly coated. Sprinkle the breadcrumb mixture over the casserole.
  8. Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the casserole is bubbly and the top is golden brown.
  9. Remove from the oven and let it cool for 5-10 minutes before serving. Garnish with chopped parsley.

Notes

  • For a healthier option, substitute half of the heavy cream with Greek yogurt.
  • Add vegetables like broccoli or spinach for extra nutrition and flavor.
