Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 Tbsp Olive oil, divided
  • 1 Lb Boneless, skinless chicken thighs
  • 2 Cups Broccoli, cut into small florets
  • 1 Cup Leeks, sliced
  • 1/2 tsp Paprika
  • 1/2 Cup Grated Parmesan cheese, divided
  • 1/4 Cup Cheddar cheese, grated and packed
  • 4 Oz Cream cheese (1/2 a brick)
  • 6 Tbsp Heavy whipping cream
  • 2 Tbsp Mayonnaise
  • 1 Tbsp Dijon Mustard
  • 1/2 tsp Salt

Instructions

  • Pre heat your oven to 375 degrees.
  • Heat 1 Tbsp of oil in a large, oven-safe skillet on high heat.
  • Sear the chicken thighs until golden brown on each side, about 3 minutes per side. Once seared, turn to medium heat, cover and cook until the chicken is done and an instant read thermometer measures 165 degrees F, about 7-9 minutes.
  • While the chicken cooks, place a steamer basket over a pot of water and bring to a boil. Once boiling, add in the broccoli, cover and cook until the broccoli is bright green and tender, about 2-4 mins. Drain and set aside.
  • Transfer the chicken to a cutting board and wipe out the pan. Heat the remaining 1 Tbsp of olive oil on medium heat and cook the leeks and the paprika until just softened, about 2-3 minutes.
  • Turn to medium low and add in 1/4 cup of then Parmesan cheese, the cheddar cheese, cream cheese, whipping cream, mayo, mustard and salt. Whisk until smooth and creamy. Once done, remove from heat.
  • Cut the chicken into small cubes and add it, along with the broccoli, into the pot, stirring to coat.
  • Sprinkle the remaining Parmesan over the casserole and bake until bubbly, about 15 minutes. Then, turn your oven to HIGH broil and broil until golden, about 2-3 minutes.
  • DEVOUR!
