Ingredients:

– 1 pound cavatappi pasta

– 2 (10.5-ounce) cans of cream of chicken soup

– 2 cups half & half

– 3 tablespoons Dijon mustard

– 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped

– 1 teaspoon season salt (Lowry’s brand recommended)

– ½ teaspoon black pepper

– 3 cups Swiss cheese, shredded

– 2 cups rotisserie chicken, diced

– 1 cup thick-sliced deli chicken ham, diced

– 1 tablespoon unsalted butter, melted

– ¾ cup plain panko bread crumbs

– ¼ cup grated parmesan cheese

 

Directions:

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F. Grease a 9×13 casserole dish with non-stick cooking spray.
  2. Cook the cavatappi pasta in a large pot of boiling water according to package directions, aiming for al dente, about 7 to 8 minutes.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, combine cream of chicken soup, half & half, Dijon mustard, chopped parsley, season salt, and black pepper.
  4. Add shredded Swiss cheese, diced rotisserie chicken, and diced chicken ham to the bowl. Stir well to combine.
  5. Drain the cooked pasta and add it to the bowl. Mix until everything is evenly incorporated.
  6. Transfer the mixture into the prepared casserole dish, spreading it out evenly.
  7. In a separate small bowl, mix melted butter, panko bread crumbs, and grated parmesan cheese. Sprinkle this topping evenly over the casserole.
  8. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes or until the topping turns golden brown and the casserole is bubbling.
  9. Serve hot and enjoy!
