1/2 cup sour cream

1 cup chicken broth

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 teaspoon onion powder

1 teaspoon Italian seasoning

Salt and pepper to taste

1/2 cup green onions, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

    Prepare the Casserole Base: In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded chicken, broccoli florets, and cauliflower rice. Mix well to distribute the vegetables evenly.

      Make the Sauce: In another bowl, mix together the softened cream cheese, sour cream, chicken broth, garlic powder, onion powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Whisk until smooth and combined.

        Combine: Pour the sauce over the chicken and vegetables. Stir well to ensure everything is coated evenly with the creamy mixture.

          Add Cheese: Stir in 3/4 cup of the shredded cheddar cheese, reserving 1/4 cup for topping.

            Transfer to Baking Dish: Pour the entire mixture into a greased 9x13 inch baking dish. Spread it out evenly.

              Top the Casserole: Sprinkle the reserved cheddar cheese over the top of the casserole.

                Bake: Place the casserole in the preheated oven and bake for about 25-30 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and golden brown.

                  Garnish and Serve: Once baked, remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes. Garnish with chopped green onions before serving.
