Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Chicken breast, cooked and shredded
- 2 cups Broccoli florets
- 2 cups Cauliflower florets
- 8 ounces Cream cheese
- 0.5 cup Heavy cream
- 2 cups Sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
- 0.5 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Onion powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Paprika
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a large pot, bring water to a boil and add the broccoli and cauliflower florets. Cook for about 4 minutes until they are slightly tender. Drain and set aside.
In a large skillet over medium heat, melt the butter. Add the cream cheese and stir until it’s completely melted and smooth.
Pour in the heavy cream and continue to stir until the mixture is well combined and creamy.
Add the garlic powder, onion powder, salt, black pepper, and paprika to the cream mixture. Stir to incorporate.
Stir in the shredded chicken, cooked broccoli, and cauliflower into the cheese sauce. Mix until everything is well coated.
Transfer the mixture into a greased 9x13 inch baking dish.
Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese and grated Parmesan cheese evenly over the top of the casserole.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the cheese is melted, bubbly, and golden brown on top.
Remove from the oven and let it sit for a few minutes before serving.
Garnish with fresh parsley if desired and serve warm.
