Chicken Cordon Bleu Casserole Recipe

Recipes

I love finding one dish meals that the whole family loves for a couple of reasons; one – it means it is an easy meal and two – it is a great way to sneak healthy options into these dishes.  Today I am sharing a casserole that I would consider a one dish meal but it isn’t so healthy.  HA!  But sometimes we have to indulge in our favorite foods, especially on a cold Sunday evening.

I made this recipe because I loved the idea of a casserole with one of my favorite chicken dishes in mind.  I adore Chicken Cordon Bleu but it isn’t the easiest thing to make.  This casserole is so easy and so delicious!  A must try for sure!

5. Begin preparing sauce by melting the butter in a large sauce pot over medium heat. When butter is melted, quickly stir in the flour to form a smooth roux. Make sure the roux does not brown or burn!

6. Once the roux is smooth and bubbly, slowly pour in the cold milk while stirring gingerly to make a smooth sauce.

7. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly until the sauce thickens. Stir in the lemon juice, Dijon mustard, salt, paprika and pepper. I did feel like the sauce took awhile to thicken but it will eventually. Keep stirring!

8. Bring sauce just back to a low boil and turn off heat.

9. Pour sauce over casserole layers evenly.

10. To make the topping melt the butter in the microwave in a medium sized microwaveable bowl.

11. Once melted stir in the panko bread crumbs and dried parsley.

12. Sprinkle breadcrumbs over the casserole evenly.

13. Bake casserole for 45-50 minutes. Casserole should be bubbly and topping should be golden brown when done.

14. Serve warm and enjoy!!

Yum!!  This recipe was so good and really hit the spot on a cold snowy evening.  Next time I make this I will be adding a little more cheese, we love cheese in our casseroles.  Other than that it was a great family friendly meal that gave us a good amount of leftovers too!  



What new casseroles have you tried lately?
