Ingredients
  

  • 3 cups cooked shredded chicken (rotisserie chicken works perfectly)
  • 3 cups broccoli florets steamed
  • 2 cups cauliflower rice cooked
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 4 oz cream cheese softened
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Optional:

  • A sprinkle of grated Parmesan for topping

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven

  • Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.

Prepare the Base

  • Spread the cooked cauliflower rice evenly across the bottom of your prepared baking dish. This will act as the “grain-free” base for your casserole.

Steam the Veggies

  • Steam the broccoli florets until tender but still bright green. Drain well and layer them over the cauliflower rice.

Mix the Sauce

  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the cream cheese, sour cream, heavy cream, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper until smooth and creamy.

Add the Chicken

  • Stir the shredded chicken into the sauce until evenly coated, then spread this mixture over the broccoli layer in your baking dish.

Top with Cheese

  • Sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the top. For extra flavor, you can add a little grated Parmesan as well.

Bake and Serve

  • Bake uncovered for 25–30 minutes, or until the casserole is bubbly and the cheese is golden brown. Let it cool for a few minutes before serving.
