Step 1: Preheat and Prepare

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a 9×13 inch baking dish to prevent sticking.

Step 2: Layer the Chicken and Ham

In a large mixing bowl, combine the chopped chicken, diced ham, and half of the Swiss cheese. Spread the mixture evenly in the greased baking dish.

Step 3: Prepare the Creamy Sauce

In a separate bowl, whisk together the heavy cream, chicken broth, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper until well blended.

Step 4: Assemble the Casserole

Pour the cream mixture evenly over the chicken and ham. Sprinkle the remaining Swiss cheese on top to create a cheesy, golden crust.

Step 5: Bake to Perfection

Place the casserole in the oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the cheese is melted, bubbly, and slightly golden brown.

Step 6: Serve and Enjoy

Remove from the oven, let it cool for a few minutes, then serve hot. Pair with a side of steamed vegetables, a fresh salad, or garlic bread for a complete meal.


Tips and Variations:

  • Make it Crunchy: Add a topping of crushed pork rinds, breadcrumbs, or crushed crackers for an extra crispy texture.
  • Low-Carb Option: This casserole is already low in carbs, but you can swap the chicken broth for a splash of white wine for added depth of flavor.
  • Different Cheeses: Swap Swiss cheese for mozzarella, provolone, or a mix of cheddar and parmesan for a unique twist.
  • Meal Prep Friendly: Make this ahead of time and store in the refrigerator for up to 3 days, or freeze for up to 2 months.
