Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 395 degrees F. Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
- Sliced mushrooms.
- Heat a large skillet with oil on medium heat. Add mushrooms, broccoli, and garlic and cook for 5 minutes.
- Stir in shredded chicken, salt, pepper and parsley. Now add 1 cup of shredded cheese and heavy cream. Stir and bring to a simmer.
- Transfer to the baking dish. Sprinkle the rest of the cheese on top and bake in the oven for 20 minutes until the cheese melts and is golden.
- Remove, garnish with parsley and serve.
Notes
- Using a store-bought rotisserie chicken is easy.
- Fresh broccoli works fine in this casserole, too. Just make sure to cut it into bite-sized pieces before adding it.
- Use a large cast iron skillet for cooking the chicken with cream and you can pop it right in the oven and make this a one pot dinner.
- Try different cheeses.
- This casserole is a great make-ahead meal. You can assemble the entire thing a day in advance and store it in the fridge until you're ready to bake. Because it starts cold, add a few extra minutes to the baking time.
