Cheesy Broccoli Bacon Chicken Casserole
I created this dish to use the broccoli i had bought for the first time in my life (used to hate the stuff!) and to fit my parents' low carb diet! . The fastest way to pre-cook the broccoli, chicken and bacon is by using a combination of the microwave and stovetop. I cooked the bacon and chicken in the microwave--separately--and i steamed the broccoli--but you could also nuke the broccoli and saute the other two).
Steps
In a medium saucepan , heat chicken stock until boiling.
Reduce heat to low and stir in sour cream and milk.
When dissolved , stir in monterey jack.
When dissolved , stir in cream cheese.
Add garlic powder , ground pepper , and bacon grease.
Whisk until smooth.
Remove sauce from stove and pour into the bottom of a rectangular glass casserole dish.
Layer chicken , bacon and broccoli over the sauce.
Sprinkle cheddar / jack and parmesan over the top.
Bake at 350 for 15-20 minutes.
