How to make Chicken Cordon Bleu keto

Skip the bread crumbs and panko breading in this super easy keto chicken cordon bleu casserole!
Your first step in making this keto friendly Chicken Cordon Bleu Casserole recipe is to preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Next, you will put the chicken in the bottom of a 9 x 13 baking dish.
Then you want to layer the pieces of ham on top. Next, in a large bowl with an electric mixer you will combine the cream cheese, butter, white wine, mustard, lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Then blend these ingredients until a thick sauce forms.
When the ingredients are blended into a thick sauce, spread this sauce over the chicken and ham in the baking dish. After that, sprinkle the Swiss cheese on top of the sauce.
Next bake the casserole dish for 25-30 minutes until hot and the cheese is melted. Also, you can broil it for 1-2 minutes if desired for bubbly cheese. Finally, garnish with parsley if desired and enjoy!
Pro tip: before broiling you can also top with crushed pork rinds for a little extra texture.
