  • Author: Emily Rhodes
  • Total Time: 55 minutes
  • Yield: 6 servings 1x

Description

A creamy, cheesy, and low-carb chicken alfredo broccoli bake that’s perfect for easy family dinners. This comforting casserole combines tender chicken, vibrant broccoli, and a rich homemade alfredo sauce for a hearty, guilt-free meal.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups cooked chicken breast, shredded or diced (about 340g)
  • 3 cups broccoli florets, fresh or frozen (about 285g)
  • 1 cup heavy cream (240ml)
  • 4 oz cream cheese, softened (115g)
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese (113g), divided
  • 3/4 cup grated parmesan cheese (70g), divided
  • 2 tbsp unsalted butter (28g)
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/2 tsp sea salt
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 1/4 tsp ground nutmeg (optional)
  • 1 tbsp chopped fresh parsley (for garnish, optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9×13-inch (23x33cm) baking dish.
  2. Steam or blanch broccoli florets for 3-4 minutes until bright green but still crisp. Drain and set aside. If using frozen, thaw and pat dry.
  3. In a skillet over medium heat, melt butter. Add minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 1 minute.
  4. Add cream cheese and heavy cream to the skillet. Stir and whisk until smooth and creamy.
  5. Mix in 1/2 cup parmesan and 1/2 cup mozzarella. Stir until melted. Season with salt, pepper, and nutmeg.
  6. Add cooked chicken and blanched broccoli to the skillet. Toss to coat evenly.
  7. Transfer mixture to the prepared baking dish. Spread evenly with a spatula.
  8. Sprinkle remaining mozzarella and parmesan on top.
  9. Bake for 25-30 minutes until bubbly and golden. Let cool slightly before serving.
  10. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley, if desired.

Notes

For a dairy-free version, substitute coconut cream and dairy-free cheese. You can swap broccoli with cauliflower or use a mix. Make ahead and freeze for easy meal prep. Do not overcook broccoli before baking to avoid mushiness.
