Easy Parmesan Chicken Casserole

nonstick cooking spray

6 cups cooked chicken(shredded or diced)

¼ tsp black pepper

1 ½ teaspoons garlic powder

½ cup mayonnaise

½ cup plain Greek yogurt

½ cup shredded Parmesan cheese(for chicken)

½ cup shredded Parmesan cheese(for topping)

fresh parsley(for serving)

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 375°F. Spray a 9x13-inch baking dish with nonstick cooking spray. Set aside.

Place the chicken in a large mixing bowl and season with the black pepper and garlic powder. Add the mayonnaise, Greek yogurt, and Parmesan cheese. Mix with a rubber spatula until thoroughly combined.

Transfer the chicken mixture to the prepared baking dish and smooth it into an even layer. Sprinkle the Parmesan cheese evenly over the top.

Bake the casserole on middle rack of oven until the cheese is lightly browned and the dish bubbles at the edges, 20-25 minutes.

Check to see that casserole is done. Remove from oven or add time as needed.

Allow casserole to rest for 10 minutes before serving. Top with parsley.

Tips & Tricks (5)

Balance Your Dairy Ratio 🥛
Mix Greek yogurt and mayonnaise in equal parts to achieve the perfect creamy texture without the casserole becoming too heavy or tangy; adjust based on your cream preference.
Toast Your Parmesan First 🧀
Reserve half your shredded Parmesan to sprinkle on top before baking at 375°F for 20-25 minutes, creating a golden, crispy crust while the interior stays creamy.
Maximize Herb Flavor 🌿
Finely chop fresh parsley and divide it—mix half into the sauce base and sprinkle the rest on top after baking to preserve bright, fresh flavor that doesn't cook away.
Prevent Dry Chicken 🍗
If using freshly cooked chicken, slightly undercook it before mixing into the casserole, as it will cook further in the oven and stay moist rather than becoming rubbery.
Garlic Powder Timing ⏱️
Add garlic powder to the yogurt-mayo mixture rather than sprinkling it dry over chicken, allowing it to bloom and distribute evenly throughout the creamy sauce for consistent flavor.
