Chicken and Ham
- 2 cups cooked rotisserie chicken, shredded This is the star of the dish, providing tender and juicy chicken.
- 1 cup cooked ham, diced Adds a savory touch that complements the chicken beautifully.
- 1 cup Swiss cheese, shredded This cheese melts perfectly, giving the casserole a creamy texture.
- 1 cup breadcrumbs For that delightful crispy topping that contrasts with the creamy filling.
- 1 cup milk Helps bind the ingredients together and adds moisture.
- 1/2 cup sour cream Adds richness and a slight tang to the dish.
- 1/4 cup Dijon mustard Provides a zesty kick that enhances the overall flavor.
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder Infuses the casserole with a warm, aromatic flavor.
- 1 teaspoon onion powder Complements the garlic and adds depth to the dish.
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper For a hint of spice.
- 1/2 teaspoon salt Enhances all the flavors in the casserole.
- 1 tablespoon olive oil Used to grease the baking dish and adds a touch of healthy fat.
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish) Adds a pop of color and freshness when serving.
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with olive oil.
Shred the rotisserie chicken into bite-sized pieces and combine it with diced ham, shredded Swiss cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper, and salt in a large mixing bowl.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, sour cream, and Dijon mustard until smooth, then pour this mixture over the chicken and ham mixture and stir gently.
Transfer the mixture into the prepared baking dish, spread it out evenly, and sprinkle breadcrumbs on top. Bake for 30-35 minutes until golden brown and bubbling.
Let the casserole rest for about 5 minutes before serving, garnished with fresh parsley.
