Following the keto diet, this casserole is cheesy, creamy, and easy to prepare. Any cheese can be used and any cut of chicken. I prefer chicken thighs because I find them more flavorful. The choice is yours.

Ingredients

2 tablespoons butter
½ (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
½ cup shredded Gouda cheese
¼ cup mayonnaise
¼ cup chicken broth
2 tablespoons dry ranch dressing mix (such as Hidden Valley Ranch®)
2 cups chopped cooked broccoli
1 ¾ cups diced cooked chicken
½ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
1 ½ cups shredded sharp Cheddar cheese

Steps:

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Whisk in cream cheese, Gouda cheese, mayonnaise, chicken broth, and ranch dressing mix. Reduce heat to low and cook, stirring constantly, until completely incorporated, 4 to 5 minutes. Stir in broccoli, chicken, salt, and pepper until combined. Transfer to a casserole dish and top with Cheddar cheese.
Bake in the preheated oven until cheese is melted and broccoli-chicken mixture is heated through, about 25 minutes. Switch the oven to broil, and cook until cheese starts to brown, 2 to 4 minutes.

KETO CHICKEN AND BROCCOLI CASSEROLE

Keto Chicken and Broccoli Casserole image

Sometimes, I overestimate what my family will eat. No worries, a casserole will help use up those leftovers! You may use any combination of cooked chicken--dark and white, all dark, or all white. I used chicken thighs. Add some leftover cooked broccoli and some pantry items, and you are there. It's a 'keto' recipe, to boot!
