Ingredients

  • 3 cups cooked chicken, shredded or diced
  • 8 slices ham, chopped
  • 1 cup Swiss cheese, shredded
  • ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • ¾ cup heavy cream (or half-and-half)
  • 2 tbsp Dijon mustard
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • ½ tsp onion powder
  • ½ tsp black pepper
  • ½ cup seasoned breadcrumbs (optional for topping)
  • 2 tbsp melted butter (optional, for breadcrumbs)
  • Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a casserole dish.
  2. In a large bowl, combine chicken, ham, Swiss cheese, and Parmesan.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk cream, Dijon mustard, garlic powder, onion powder, and pepper.
  4. Pour sauce over chicken mixture and stir until evenly coated.
  5. Transfer to the prepared casserole dish.
  6. If using, mix breadcrumbs with melted butter and sprinkle on top.
  7. Bake 25–30 minutes, until bubbly and lightly golden.
  8. Garnish with parsley before serving.

Tips

  • Use rotisserie chicken to save time.
  • For a lower-carb version, skip the breadcrumbs or replace with crushed pork rinds or almond flour crumbs.
  • Swap Swiss cheese with Gruyère or mozzarella for a milder flavor.
  • Let the casserole rest 5–10 minutes before serving to set.
