Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups cauliflower florets fresh or frozen
  • 2 cups cooked chicken shredded or diced
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1 cup cream cheese softened
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 1/2 cup chicken broth
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon paprika
  • 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes optional
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with cooking spray or butter.
  2. If using fresh cauliflower, steam the florets until tender, about 5-7 minutes. If using frozen, microwave according to package instructions until heated through.
  3. In a large bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, sour cream, chicken broth, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, black pepper, paprika, and red pepper flakes. Mix until smooth and well combined.
  4. Add the cooked chicken and steamed cauliflower to the bowl. Stir gently until everything is evenly coated with the creamy mixture.
  5. Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking dish, spreading it out evenly. Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese and grated Parmesan cheese on top.
  6. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and golden brown.
  7. Let the dish cool for a few minutes before serving.
