Easy Chicken Broccoli Casserole (Paleo, Low Carb, and Gluten Free)

April 13, 2015 By Caitlin Weeks

Recipe Chicken Broccoli Casserole

I made this casserole a few weeks ago for my dad and his friend who were coming over to do some odd jobs at my house in Nashville. They loved it and kept asking for seconds. It is very filling and will satisfy a heart appetite for many hours. I used to love casseroles as a kid such as potatoes au gratin, mac and cheese (try my sub recipe here) and tuna noodle casserole but this one is just as good without the gluten and dairy. Hope you like it and will share it with your family. Leave a comment and let me know how it turns out. This dish is perfect for the 21 day sugar detox too because it has no sugar or starchy ingredients. Get started on the detox here.

Recipe: Chicken Broccoli Casserole

Prep Time: 15 minutes

Cook Time: 40 minutes

Serves 4

 

Ingredients:

2 tablespoons coconut oil, divided (order here)

4 cups fresh broccoli florets

1 medium white onion, diced (use 1/2 onion to cut carbs, if desired)

Sea salt (order here) and pepper

8 oz. mushrooms, sliced

3 cups cooked chicken, shredded

1 cup chicken bone broth (order here)

1 cup full fat coconut milk (order here) or 1 cup organic heavy cream

2 eggs, pastured soy free are best, (order here)

1/2 teaspoon nutmeg, optional (order here)

Cooking Directions: Broccoli Casserole

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Grease a casserole pan with half the coconut oil and set aside. Steam the broccoli until just barely cooked and set aside, uncovered. In a sauce pan melt the coconut oil, brown the onions and season with salt and pepper. Add the mushrooms, saute until cooked and move the pan off the heat. Transfer the broccoli, mushroom, onions, and shredded chicken into the casserole pan distributing evenly. Mix the bone broth, coconut milk, eggs, nutmeg with a generous pinch of salt and pepper in a bowl with a whisk and pour it over the contents of the casserole dish. Make sure the mixture is spread evenly and all the contents are covered. Place the casserole in the oven and cook for 35 to 40 minutes until done in the middle. Remove from the oven and let it cool for 5 to 10 minutes before serving.

lI grew up eating southern comfort food and battling the bulge. After college I lost 90 lbs on a low fat diet and cardio exercise. Inspired by my success, I wanted to help others and became a personal trainer for many years. On the outside I looked good but was battling sugar cravings and hunger. In 2010, after years of yo-yo dieting, I was diagnosed with Hashimotos thyroiditis an autoimmune disease where the body attacks its self.

In addition to thyroid medication, I adopted a gluten free and Paleo diet that is higher in fat and lower in carbs which helped my energy, blood sugar and happy moods. Along my healing journey I started to become aware of chemicals in my home and personal care routine and I found natures answer: essential oils that helped me in so many ways physically and emotionally (learn more here).

    This looks delicious. I’d love to give it a try.

    Is there a way to print recipes from your website so I don’t have to print the whole graphics intensive page? I tried to copy the recipe to print it in a word document, but your page doesn’t allow me to do that.

    Thanks for the help in conserving resources, and the great recipe. 🙂
