Low Carb Chicken Casserole

Y’all, I can’t even tell you just how amazingly delicious this cheesy Low Carb Chicken Casserole is. I made it yesterday afternoon after a recommendation from Abbie in our Keto/Low Carb Challenge Facebook group (join here if you haven’t already). She had a brilliant idea to add chicken, broccoli, and mushrooms (I left out the mushrooms because I didn’t have any and we don’t like them anyway) to a casserole dish, then to pour the cheese sauce from my Cauliflower Mac N Cheese over the top and bake. She posted a picture of her casserole, and I knew this was a recipe that so many would enjoy as well.

I got in the kitchen and started experimenting and tweaked the original cheese sauce recipe just a bit. Holy cow! When the cheese sauce bakes into the chicken and broccoli, it tastes SO GOOD!!!

Keto Chicken Casserole Variations

You can make this Low Chicken Casserole many different ways with the options listed below:

Use a Rotisserie Chicken to save time

Sub in different veggies like cauliflower, mushrooms, asparagus, brussels sprouts, or green beans

Add crushed pork rinds or homemade Cheese Crisps for a crunchy topping

Here are a couple of pictures that show just how easy this Keto Chicken Casserole is to make. Continue to scroll down for the complete list of ingredients and instructions.

I cooked my chicken in my slow cooker as it always makes it so tender and flavorful, but you can also use a rotisserie chicken to save time. Either fresh broccoli or steam bags of broccoli work great.

I used cheddar cheese, mozzarella cheese, and parmesan cheese because that is what I had in my fridge, but feel free to swap out for Colby, Monterrey Jack, Gouda or another variety.

Doesn’t that cheese sauce look divine?

Goodness, gracious! This Low Carb Chicken Casserole is terrific! I made it before my son’s baseball game and could not wait to get home to dig in afterward.
