Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pieces Boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 3 cups Broccoli florets
- 2 cups Cauliflower florets
- 8 ounces Cream cheese
- 0.5 cups Heavy cream
- 1.5 cups Shredded cheddar cheese
- 0.5 cups Parmesan cheese
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Onion powder
- 0.5 teaspoons Paprika
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Season the chicken breasts with salt, black pepper, and paprika on both sides.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Sear the chicken breasts for 3-4 minutes per side until lightly browned. Remove from skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the broccoli and cauliflower florets. Sauté for 4-5 minutes until slightly tender, then set aside.
In a large bowl, combine cream cheese, heavy cream, garlic powder, onion powder, and 1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese. Stir until smooth and fully combined.
Chop the cooked chicken breasts into bite-sized pieces. Add the chicken, sautéed vegetables, and cheese mixture into a large mixing bowl. Toss gently until everything is evenly coated.
Transfer the mixture to a 9x13-inch casserole dish, spreading it out evenly.
Sprinkle the remaining 0.5 cups of shredded cheddar cheese and Parmesan cheese over the top.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the casserole is bubbly and golden on top.
Let the casserole rest for 5 minutes before serving. Enjoy your delicious low-carb meal!
