Ingredients
Chicken Casserole
3 cups cooked chicken, shredded or diced
6 oz deli ham, chopped
6 oz Swiss cheese, shredded or sliced
4 oz cream cheese, softened
½ cup heavy cream
2 tbsp Dijon mustard
1 tsp garlic powder

Instructions
Preheat the oven: Heat oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
Make the creamy sauce: In a bowl, combine softened cream cheese, heavy cream, Dijon mustard, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, black pepper, and salt. Mix until smooth.
Layer the casserole: Spread half of the chicken in the baking dish. Add half of the chopped ham and Swiss cheese. Spoon over half of the cream sauce. Repeat with the remaining chicken, ham, Swiss cheese, and sauce.
Add mozzarella: Sprinkle the mozzarella evenly over the top.
Prepare the topping: Mix crushed pork rinds, Parmesan, melted butter, paprika, and parsley. Sprinkle over the casserole.
Bake: Bake uncovered for 25–30 minutes, until hot, bubbling, and golden on top.
Broil for extra crispiness: If desired, broil for 1–2 minutes until the topping is nicely browned. Watch carefully.
Rest and serve: Let the casserole rest for about 5 minutes before serving.

For the lowest-carb option, use plain cooked chicken and full-fat dairy.
You can substitute Gruyère for Swiss cheese for a richer flavor.
Add steamed broccoli or cauliflower to make this a complete one-dish meal.
