Chicken Cheese Casserole in One Pot
Report
One pot Chicken Cheese casserole is now a favourite in our house. This delicious one pot dish makes a quick weeknight dinner . Chicken breast is too lean for this recipe and will dry out. Use thigh fillet only. This recipe uses Australian cup and spoon measurements

Instructions
- You'll need a large frypan or oven proof casserole dish for this recipe. If your pan is large enough you can do the whole recipe from start to finish in that one pot. it needs to be approximately 12 inches or 28 cm
- Heat a large frypan | skillet or shallow casserole. Season the chicken with salt and pepper and add the 40 ml of oil, then add the chicken. Cook for several minutes turning to seal on all sides. ( The chicken doesn't need to be cooked through as it will continue cooking in the sauce later). Take the chicken out of the pan and set aside in a bowl
- Using the same pan, add the onion and garlic and toss till softening and starting to get fragrant. ( add a little more oil if necessary).
- Add the cream, dijon and the stock and bring up to the boil. Stir in half of the cheese and gently simmer on a reduced heat .Add the chicken and let the sauce simmer for several minutes, reducing a little on a medium to low heat. Stir occasionally. Check the chicken is done.
- Add the ( defrosted) peas or sliced snow peas on top. Then the remaining cheese and breadcrumbs.
- Put under the pan under the grill and leave till bubbling and hot and starting to go golden in colour.
- Serve with rice, couscous or quinoa. I like couscous because it only takes 5 minutes.
Notes
- You could use Gruyere cheese, or cheddar cheese if you can't find LandKaas.
