    This easy low carb and keto chicken cordon bleu casserole is all of the flavors you grew up on, without all of the work! This is such an easy weeknight dinner the whole family will love.

    Chicken cordon bleu casserole

    I know I have mentioned this before, but I have a very picky family.  This Chicken Cordon Bleu Casserole is always a huge hit with my husband and kids!  I mean, how could I go wrong with juicy chicken and ham in a rich and cheese sauce?

    My version of this popular casserole leaves out the pasta and rice because, well, chicken cordon bleu doesn't have pasta or rice!  Plus, that's not keto!

    I could have added a "breadcrumb" layer using almond flour or something similar, but I didn't want this casserole to be 1,000 calories per serving.

    HOW TO MAKE CHICKEN CORDON BLEU CASSEROLE

    To get started with this low carb casserole, we first have to get the chicken cooked.  This can be done several ways, but my favorite method is with my Instant Pot.  I use my tutorial for Instant Pot Chicken Breast and I have perfectly cooked chicken ready to chop up!

    Next up, dice 8 ounces of ham slices and throw that on top.  I like to use smoked ham, but any ham will work just fine.

    Now we're going to make the sauce.  I use a hand mixer to mix together the softened butter, softened cream cheese, dijon mustard, white wine vinegar, and water.  The sauce should be quite thick so it will need to be spread onto the ham and chicken mixtures.  Doesn't that look scrumptious!

    Now it's time for more cheese!  You can use Swiss or provolone, or heck, any cheese you want cause you're the boss!  I used 8 slices of provolone because we are not big Swiss fans.

    I don't use Swiss in my Crustless Quiche, either!

    Now it's time to bake this monster up until it is bubbly and golden on top.

    In the mean time, you can check out these other delicious easy keto weeknight dinners that get rave reviews from my family!  Instant Pot Chicken Legs, Stuffed Green Peppers, Crack Slaw, Keto Meatballs, and Shish Kabobs!

      Loved it!1 Shared it with my family - They asked for the recipe.
      I am making a big batch for my Daughter (in smaller contaiers for her to cook later). I am putting in small containers and not going to cook it and attempt to freeze it for them to cook later. I am going to add a little broth to the chicken because when I reheat it. it was a little dry.

      Everyone loved this meal. The only thing i did different is that i added a teaspoon of italian seasoning and garlic powder. The sauce was a little liquid but the flavor was amazing.

      I shred a purchased rotisserie chicken for this - easy and it adds a good roasted flavor we like, and whatever cheese we happen to have, which I shred to spread and melt better as it cooks. This is a favorite for our family.

      My husband is not a fun of casseroles, but he absolutely loved this recipe, went for seconds, and kept telling me how delicious it was. I made just half of the recipe as I only wanted for the night’s dinner, but I still ended up with leftovers. We are on the induction phase of just 20 carbs per day, and the next morning we both had lost 1 pound. Thank you so much for a superb dinner.

      I realize this is low carb but I would like to add cooked pasta to the recipe. In order to do that do you,think I would have to change up any,other ingredients or,their amounts?

      My macros are not coming out the same as yours. I didnt expect it to be exact, but its way off... im getting 5 net carbs/30 fat/ 36 protein. I'm not sure why it is so dramatically different.

      Is the white wine vinegar in this recipe because it's a keto dish? What if I don't have white wine vinegar? Is it very important to the flavor? I really wanted to make this tonight. Thanks!

        Excellent flavor! Both of my kids liked it which is saying a lot lol. The only thing I will say is the sauce turned very watery after baking. I’m not sure what went wrong bc I followed the recipe to a T. Not sure if it’s normal or what. But other than that this recipe is delicious and we will definitely make it again!!

      Saw that someone else asked and I would do like to know How much chicken Is used by weight. Very helpful to getting the correct recipe proportions.

      Thanks!

      A very tasty casserole! My husband says it's a keeper! I cooked the chicken in the IP with the all purpose seasonings from your IP recipe. I made the cream cheese sauce per the revipe, but when I served up the dish the sauce had turned to liquid. I was hoping it would be creamier. Is this normal? I love your recipes and videos.

      Can you tell the amount of chicken by weight? Chicken breasts can be different sizes. Mine first attempt had too much chicken. Second attempt too little and the butter made it very oily and liquidy. Flavor excellent, but trying to tweak it.

      What could you use instead of butter? I cannot do cow dairy. I will sub the cheese with goat cheese.
