Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound Boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1 medium head Cabbage
- 3 tablespoons Butter
- 3 tablespoons All-purpose flour
- 2 cups Chicken broth
- 1 cup Heavy cream
- 1 cup Shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Vegetable oil
- 0.5 cup Breadcrumbs
- 2 tablespoons Chopped parsley (optional for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
Finely shred the cabbage and set it aside.
Cut the chicken into bite-sized pieces and season lightly with salt and pepper.
Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat and cook the chicken pieces until they are golden brown and cooked through, about 6-8 minutes. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Stir in the flour and cook for 1-2 minutes until it forms a paste.
Gradually whisk in the chicken broth and heavy cream, cooking until the mixture thickens, about 3-4 minutes.
Stir in the cheddar cheese, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper until the cheese is melted and the sauce is smooth. Remove from heat.
Spread half of the shredded cabbage evenly in the greased baking dish. Layer the cooked chicken on top, followed by the remaining shredded cabbage.
Pour the creamy sauce evenly over the cabbage and chicken, ensuring everything is coated.
Sprinkle the breadcrumbs evenly over the top of the casserole.
Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the casserole is bubbling.
Remove from the oven and let it rest for 5 minutes before serving.
Garnish with chopped parsley if desired and enjoy!
