How To Make Chicken Ham Swiss Cheese Casserole?

Get ready to tantalize your taste buds with an incredible savory dish – preheat the oven and spray a 9×13 baking dish with nonstick cooking spray. Then layer in shredded chicken, ham and Swiss cheese before heating up butter in a large pot over medium-high heat on the stovetop while stirring slowly so you don’t burn it.

Now mix in flavorful spices like garlic, salt & pepper, Dijon mustard and even smoked paprika for extra flavor! Keep whisking as you add flour followed by milk until deliciously thickened creamy sauce is achieved then pour on top all that delicious base goodness already prepared earlier.

Finally top off this masterpiece with some crunchy topping made from mixing together crumbs of your choice to create irresistibly baked delight perfect for any night of the week! This is my take of the traditional chicken cordon bleu recipe

Ingredients

  • 5–6 Cups of cooked chicken
  • 1/2 pound sliced deli-style black forest ham, chopped
  • 1/2 pound sliced swiss cheese

Sauce

  • 4 Tb butter
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 4 Tb flour
  • 3 C milk
  • 2 Tb lemon juice
  • 1 Tb dijion mustard
  • 1 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp smoked paprika
  • 1/2 tsp pepper

Topping

  • 4 Tb melted butter
  • 1 1/4 C seasoned bread crumbs
  • 1/4 C parmesan cheese

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees and spray a 9×13 casserole dish with nonstick spray.
  2.  Layer the chicken in the bottom of the dish followed by the ham and finally the swiss cheese.
  3. Melt the butter over medium heat, in a medium saucepan, and add garlic as it melts. Keep stirring with a rubber spatula to avoid burning.
  4. Stir in salt, pepper, Dijon mustard, smoked paprika and lemon juice. 
  5. Whisk in the flour and cook for 1 minute. 
  6. Add the milk, slowly. Whisk often to keep clumps from forming. Turn the heat to high and cook until the sauce thickens and boils completely. 
  7. Pour the finished sauce over the base layer already in the dish. 
  8. Mix the topping ingredients, in a small bowl, until the butter is evenly distributed over the crumbs. 
  9. Sprinkle over the top of the dish and bake for 45 minutes at 350 degrees. Allow to cool for 10 minutes before serving so the sauce thickens just a bit.
