Chicken Cordon Bleu Casserole Recipe
Report
A lot of times when people think of Chicken Cordon Bleu Casserole, they think of a version they grew up with that uses "cream of" style condensed soups with with sour cream. This one is not that. This version has a creamy Dijon Parmesan sauce that's poured of a yummy combination of chicken, ham, and Swiss. It's all brought together with a crispy, crunchy breadcrumb topping that will remind you of the crispy breading on Chicken Cordon Bleu.

Ingredients
- 6 cups chicken cooked shredded
- 8 ounces ham diced
- 8 ounces swiss cheese grated
Sauce
- 4 tablespoons butter
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 3 cups milk
- 2 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoons kosher salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper ground
- 1/3 cup Parmesan Cheese shredded
- 1 dash Worcestershire sauce
Crumb Topping
- 4 tablespoons butter melted
- 1 1/4 cup panko bread crumbs
- 1/4 cup Parmesan Cheese
- parsley optional, finely chopped
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F. Spray a 9x13 oven safe baking dish with nonstick spray and set it aside.
- Add the chicken and ham to the casserole dish. Sprinkle the Swiss cheese over the top of the chicken and ham mixture.
- In a skillet add the butter and let it melt.
- Add in the flour and whisk until it creates a smooth bubbly roux.
- Slowly pour in the milk, whisking while adding.
- Once the milk is fully added and there are no clumps, add in the Dijon mustard, garlic powder, salt, black pepper, parmesan, and Worcestershire sauce.
- Once it's smooth, pour the sauce over the Swiss cheese.
- Combine the melted butter, panko bread crumbs, and parmesan cheese in a small bowl.
- Sprinkle the breadcrumb mix over the top of the sauce.
- Bake uncovered in the oven for 45 minutes. Remove it from the oven and let it cool for 10-15 minutes. The sauce will thicken as it cools.

Notes
- I highly recommend freshly grated parmesan cheese for the sauce. The pre-shredded cheese has an anti-caking agent on it that prevents it from melting as well.
- Don't let your roux cook too long. You aren't looking to darken the roux, just let it cook quickly.
- Make sure your shredded chicken doesn't have a lot of liquid. It can cause your sauce to be watery.
