Ingredients
For the Casserole
- 5 cups cooked and shredded chicken
- ½ pound thinly sliced deli ham chopped
- ¼ pound thinly sliced Swiss Cheese or 2 cups shredded mozzarella or provolone cheese
For the White Sauce
- 4 Tablespoons butter
- ¼ cup flour
- 3 cups milk
- 1 Tablespoons lemon juice
- 1 Tablespoons Dijon mustard
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon smoked paprika
- ¼ teaspoon pepper
For the Topping
- 2 cups panko breadcrumbs
- 5 Tablespoons butter melted
Instructions
For the Casserole
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Butter or lightly spray a 9x13 baking dish.
- Put shredded chicken evenly in the bottom of the baking dish.
- Sprinkle the chopped ham over the top of the chicken.
- Lay the slices of cheese over the ham, or sprinkle the shredded cheese over the ham.
For the White Sauce
- Melt the butter in a medium-sized saucepan over medium heat.
- Once the butter is melted, add the flour all at once and stir to make a roux. (It will look like thick paste).
- Once it is smooth and bubbly, slowly pour in the milk while stirring quickly or using a whisk to make a smooth sauce.
- Continue to cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the sauce thickens.
- Add the lemon juice, Dijon mustard, salt, paprika, and pepper.
- Bring the sauce barely to a boil and then remove from the heat.
- Pour over the chicken, ham, and cheese.
For the Topping
- Melt the butter in the microwave in a medium-sized bowl. Be sure to loosely cover the bowl to keep the butter from spattering.
- Remove the bowl from the microwave and mix in the Panko.
- Sprinkle over the top of the casserole.
- Bake uncovered for 30-35 minutes. Let cool for 10-15 minutes before serving.
