Description
This casserole is creamy, cheesy, and packed with the classic Chicken Cordon Bleu flavors—smoky ham, juicy chicken, and nutty Swiss cheese. The soup creates a rich, velvety sauce that ties everything together into a warm, satisfying dish.
Tips
- Use rotisserie chicken to save time.
- Add a sprinkle of breadcrumbs on top for a crunchy finish (optional).
- Swap Swiss cheese with mozzarella if you prefer a milder taste.
- Serve over rice, pasta, or with a side of steamed vegetables.
- Add a teaspoon of Dijon mustard for a more authentic Cordon Bleu flavor.
Correction / Notes
- If the casserole seems too thick, mix a little milk into the soup before pouring.
- Avoid overbaking, as it may dry out the chicken.
- Taste before adding salt—ham and cheese are already salty.
