Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups cooked and shredded chicken breast or thighs
- 1 cup green beans, chopped
- 1 cup broccoli, chopped
- 1 cup cauliflower, chopped
- 1 cup heavy cream (or coconut cream for dairy-free)
- 1 cup chicken broth (low-sodium)
- 1/2 cup almond flour (or coconut flour)
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese (or mozzarella)
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon pepper
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- Fresh thyme or parsley (optional for garnish)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
- In a large skillet over medium heat, combine the shredded chicken, chosen vegetables, and spices. Sauté for about 5 minutes until the vegetables start to soften.
- In a separate bowl, mix together the heavy cream, chicken broth, and almond flour until well combined. Pour this mixture into the skillet with the chicken and vegetables, stirring to combine. Let it simmer until the sauce thickens, about 3-4 minutes.
- Stir in half of the shredded cheese into the filling.
- Pour the chicken and vegetable mixture into a greased 9×13-inch casserole dish, spreading it evenly.
- Sprinkle the remaining cheese on top of the casserole. Optionally, mix some crushed pork rinds with the cheese for added crunch.
- Place the casserole in the oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and golden brown.
- Once out of the oven, let the casserole cool for about 5 minutes before serving.
