Ingredients

Scale

Chicken Mixture

  • 2 cups cooked chicken, shredded
  • 1 cup cooked turkey or chicken slices, chopped
  • 1 cup Swiss cheese, shredded
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard

Sauce and Topping

  • 1 can (10.5 oz) cream of chicken soup
  • 1/2 cup breadcrumbs
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a baking dish to prevent sticking and ensure easy cleanup.
  2. Mix the Filling: In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded cooked chicken, chopped turkey or chicken slices, shredded Swiss cheese, and Dijon mustard. Stir well until the ingredients are evenly distributed.
  3. Add Soup and Season: Add the cream of chicken soup to the chicken mixture and season with salt and pepper according to your taste. Mix thoroughly until the mixture is fully incorporated.
  4. Assemble and Bake: Pour the chicken mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it out evenly. Sprinkle the breadcrumbs evenly over the top to create a crispy crust once baked.
  5. Bake: Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the breadcrumb topping is golden brown and the casserole is bubbling along the edges, indicating it’s heated through.
  6. Serve: Remove from oven and let the casserole cool slightly before serving. This will help set the casserole and enhance the flavors. Enjoy your creamy, cheesy Chicken Cordon Bleu Casserole!

Notes

  • Use cooked chicken and turkey leftovers or freshly cooked meats for best flavor.
  • For extra crunch, you can toast the breadcrumbs lightly before sprinkling on top.
  • Feel free to substitute Swiss cheese with Gruyère or mozzarella if preferred.
  • This casserole can be prepared ahead and refrigerated before baking; increase baking time by 5-10 minutes if baked cold.
  • Leftovers store well in the refrigerator for up to 3 days and can be reheated in the oven or microwave.
