Ingredients
- 1.5 pounds Chicken breast, boneless and skinless
- 4 cups Broccoli florets
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 2 cloves Garlic, minced
- 8 ounces Cream cheese
- 1 cup Heavy cream
- 2 cups Cheddar cheese, shredded
- 0.5 cups Parmesan cheese, grated
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Paprika
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Step 2
Cut the chicken breast into bite-sized cubes. In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat and cook the chicken pieces until they are just cooked through, about 5-7 minutes. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
Step 3
In the same skillet, add butter and minced garlic, sautéing for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
Step 4
Add cream cheese and heavy cream to the skillet. Stir continuously until the cream cheese is melted and the mixture is smooth.
Step 5
Add cheddar cheese and grated Parmesan to the cream mixture, stirring until the cheeses are fully melted and the sauce is creamy.
Step 6
Season the cheese sauce with salt, black pepper, and paprika. Adjust seasoning to taste.
Step 7
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked chicken, broccoli florets, and the cheese sauce. Mix until the broccoli and chicken are evenly coated with the sauce.
Step 8
Transfer the mixture into a 9x13 inch baking dish and spread it out evenly.
Step 9
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the casserole is bubbling and the cheese on top is golden brown.
Step 10
Remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy your creamy and delicious keto chicken and broccoli casserole!
