Ingredients:

  • 1 pound boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut into bite sized pieces
  • Kosher salt and fresh ground black pepper to taste
  • 1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • 2 teaspoons olive oil
  • 1/2 of a yellow onion, diced
  • 1 clove of garlic, grated or minced
  • 2 cups sliced cremini mushrooms
  • 1 1/2 cups chopped asparagus, cut approximately 1 inch in length
  • 2 tablespoons flour
  • 3/4 cup low sodium chicken broth
  • 3/4 cup unsweetened almond milk or milk of choice
  • 1 ounce low fat cream cheese, softened
  • 1/2 cup plain non-fat Greek yogurt
  • 1/2 cup shredded gruyere cheese
  • 1/3 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese

Instructions:

  1. Preheat oven to broil. Season the cut chicken with salt, pepper and cayenne pepper.
  2. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Spray the skillet generously with with cooking spray or add enough oil to coat the bottom. Add the chicken to the skillet and sauté until nearly cooked, about 4 minutes. Remove the chicken onto a plate and set aside.
  3. Coat the skillet with more cooking spray or oil and add in the onion and garlic and sauté for 1 minute. Add in the mushrooms and asparagus and season with salt and pepper.
  4. Sauté the vegetables for another 2-3 minutes or until they start to soften. Sprinkle the flour over the top of the vegetables and stir together until the flour taste is cooked off, about 1 minute.
  5. Add the chicken back in with the vegetables. Pour in the chicken broth and milk and stir together until smooth. Cook the mixture for 2-3 minutes or until the sauce has thickened. Add in the cream cheese and stir together until smooth.
  6. Remove the skillet from the heat and stir in most of the gruyere and cheddar cheese until melted, reserve a little cheese for the top of the casserole. Stir in the Greek yogurt until smooth then top the casserole with the remaining cheese.
  7. Place in the oven and broil until the cheese is melted and starts to turn golden brown.
  8. Serve over zucchini zoodles or cauliflower rice.
  9. Enjoy!
