Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cooked and cut into bite-size pieces
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon seasoned salt
  • Salt and black pepper, to taste
  • 2 cans (10.5 oz each) cream of chicken soup
  • 1 can (10.5 oz) cream of mushroom soup
  • 1/2 cup heavy whipping cream
  • 3 cups shredded Colby Jack cheese, divided

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Position an oven rack in the center.
  2. Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat until shimmering.
  3. Season the chicken breasts with onion powder, garlic powder, seasoned salt, and salt and black pepper to taste.
  4. Cook the chicken breasts until golden brown and cooked through, about 6 to 10 minutes per side.
  5. Mix the cream of chicken soup, cream of mushroom soup, heavy whipping cream, and 2 cups of shredded Colby Jack cheese in a large bowl until smooth.
  6. Add the cooked chicken pieces to the soup and cheese mixture and mix until evenly distributed.
  7. Assemble the mixture in a baking dish, spreading it evenly, and sprinkle the remaining 1 cup of shredded cheese on top.
  8. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes until the cheese is bubbly and golden.
  9. Rest the casserole slightly before serving.

Notes

Let the casserole rest for cleaner slices. For a sharper crust, broil for 1-2 minutes at the end of baking.
