Ingredients

3 teaspoons olive oil for greasing the casserole dish
6 chicken breasts use thinly sliced or halve large breasts horizontally for even cooking
salt and black pepper to taste for seasoning chicken
3 cups broccoli florets blanched for 2 minutes to keep vibrant green
9 slices bacon cooked until crispy and chopped
½ cup mozzarella cheese shredded for topping
1½ cups cheddar cheese shredded sharp for flavor

Method

Preheat your oven to 400°F (205°C) so it’s ready for baking.
Lightly coat the bottom of a 13x9-inch casserole dish with olive oil.
Arrange the chicken breasts evenly in the prepared casserole dish.
Season the chicken generously with salt and black pepper.
Layer the blanched and chopped broccoli evenly over the chicken.
Sprinkle the crispy chopped bacon over the broccoli layer.
Scatter shredded mozzarella cheese on top of the bacon.
Finish by covering everything with shredded cheddar cheese.
Bake the casserole uncovered for 25–30 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F.
Remove from the oven and let rest for 5 minutes before serving.
