Cheesy Broccoli Bacon Chicken Casserole
By: Picholine
Sep 8, 2003
I created this dish to use the broccoli I had bought for the first time in my life (used to hate the stuff!) and to fit my parents' low carb diet. The fastest way to pre-cook the broccoli, chicken and bacon is by using a combination of the microwave and stovetop. I cooked the bacon and chicken in the microwave--separately--and I steamed the broccoli--but you could also nuke the broccoli and saute the other two).
SERVES 4 -6
Ingredients
- 1 head broccoli, chopped, cooked
- 4 chicken breasts, diced, cooked
- 7 slices bacon, chopped, cooked
- 3/4 cup sour cream
- 4 tablespoons cream cheese
- 1 1/4 cups monterey jack cheese, grated
- 1 cup chicken stock
- 1/4 cup milk
- 1/8 teaspoon ground pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 cup monterey jack and cheddar cheese blend, grated
- 2 tablespoons parmesan cheese
- 1/2 teaspoon bacon grease, reserved (optional)
Directions
1
In a medium saucepan, heat chicken stock until boiling.2
Reduce heat to low and stir in sour cream and milk.3
When dissolved, stir in monterey jack.4
When dissolved, stir in cream cheese.5
Add garlic powder, ground pepper, and bacon grease (optional).6
Whisk until smooth.7
Remove sauce from stove and pour into the bottom of a rectangular glass casserole dish.8
Layer chicken, bacon and broccoli over the sauce.9
Sprinkle cheddar/jack and parmesan over the top.10
Bake at 350 for 15-20 minutes.

This made for a great weeknight family supper, and was definitely enjoyed by all. I did find that putting the broccoli on top let it dry out quite a bit, so I would suggest pouring the sauce over the chicken, bacon & broccoli rather than adding it first. The ingredients do not specify when to add the milk, so I added it along with the sour cream. Thanks for sharing your creation.

This was just fantastic! A delicious meal, and I am low carbing so it was a real treat. I made rice to go along with it for the rest of my family, I just had it as it was and WOW!! SUPERB!! I grilled the chicken on the barbeque, yummy! Thanks for posting a keeper! Sept 11/06: I am back to say we still just love this dish and have it quite often, it has become a regular in our household!
