Instructions
Preheat oven to 350°F. Lightly grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.In a large bowl, combine the chicken and ham. Spread evenly in the prepared baking dish.In a separate bowl, mix the soup, cream cheese, sour cream, and shredded cheese until smooth.Pour the sauce evenly over the chicken and ham mixture.Sprinkle bread crumbs evenly over the top.Bake uncovered for 40 minutes, or until hot and bubbly.Let rest for 5 minutes before serving.
Notes
Swiss cheese can be used instead of Jack for a more traditional cordon bleu flavor.This casserole works well with leftover or rotisserie chicken.For a lighter version, reduced-fat soup, sour cream, and cheese may be used with good results.Serve with a simple green salad or steamed vegetables for an easy, balanced meal.
