Delicious chicken cauliflower casserole recipe with detailed instructions and nutritional information.

  • Total Time: 35 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 large head cauliflower, cut into florets
  • 1.5 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cooked and shredded
  • 1 can (10.75 oz) condensed cream of chicken soup
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 1/4 cup chopped green onions
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper

Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 9×13 inch baking dish.
  2. Step 2: Steam or boil the cauliflower florets until tender-crisp, about 8-10 minutes. Drain well.
  3. Step 3: In a large bowl, combine the shredded chicken, cream of chicken soup, milk, sour cream, black pepper, and half of the shredded cheddar cheese (reserve the other half for topping).
  4. Step 4: Gently fold in the cooked cauliflower florets into the chicken mixture.
  5. Step 5: Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish and spread evenly.
  6. Step 6: Sprinkle the remaining cheddar cheese and green onions over the top of the casserole. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown and bubbly.

Notes

  • For best flavor, let the casserole cool completely before covering and refrigerating for up to 3 days.
  • Reheat individual portions in the microwave for a quick lunch, or the entire casserole in a 350°F oven until warmed through.
  • Serve this comforting casserole with a crisp side salad to balance the richness.
  • For extra flavor, lightly sauté the cauliflower florets in butter with a pinch of garlic powder before adding them to the casserole.
