  2. Slowly whisk in the chicken broth and half-and-half. Add the cream cheese and stir until combined. Stir in Swiss cheese until melted. Stir in the chicken and ham until heated through. Serve.

Notes

  • For the chicken broth: I really like the flavor of Better than Bouillon Chicken Base with water added to as called on the package.
  • You can substitute half cream and half milk for the half-and-half.
