Method

  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F. Lightly grease a baking dish.
  2. Chop the cooked chicken and smoked ham into bite-sized pieces.
  3. In a bowl, mix the cream cheese, heavy cream, Dijon mustard, garlic powder, onion powder, and about two-thirds of the shredded cheddar cheese until combined.
  4. Add the chopped chicken and ham to the cream cheese mixture and stir well to coat everything evenly.
  5. Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking dish. Season with salt and pepper to taste, then sprinkle the remaining cheddar cheese on top.
  6. Bake for 15–20 minutes, until the casserole is hot and bubbly and the top is golden brown.
  7. Serve the casserole with fresh lettuce drizzled with olive oil.

💡 Tips

  • Use leftover or rotisserie chicken to save time.
  • For a milder flavor, substitute Swiss cheese for part of the cheddar.
  • If you prefer a crispier top, broil for the last 1–2 minutes.
