One of the major side effects of this Pandemic – Boredom. My work-around – experiment with new recipes. Here are two that I made and served for dinner tonight when friends came over for dinner.
CHICKEN CORDON BLEU CASSEROLE – KETO
Delicious Chicken Cordon Bleu is converted into an easy weeknight keto casserole dish with layers of chicken, ham, and Swiss cheese.
INGREDIENTS
• 4 cups cooked shredded chicken breast
• 1 cup Parmesan cheese, divided
• 8-10 slices deli ham, cut into squares
• 1 cup sour cream
• 3-4 tablespoons Dijon mustard
• 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
• 1/2 tablespoon garlic powder
• 11 slices Swiss cheese
DIRECTIONS
1 Pre-heat oven to 375 degrees. Coat a 13×9 casserole dish with olive oil to prevent sticking.
2 Add shredded chicken and 1/2 cup of shredded parmesan cheese to the 13×9 dish. Making sure to cover the dish completely.
3 In a large bowl, mix together sour cream, mustard, Italian seasoning, garlic powder, and a pinch of salt & pepper.
4 Spread sour cream mixture over the shredded chicken. Add sliced deli ham on top of spread. Top with sliced Swiss cheese covering the ham.
5 Top the layers with the remaining 1/2 cup of shredded Parmesan cheese. If you like a crunch, you can add crushed pork rinds as well. Place in oven to bake for about 25 minutes.
