Rinse the cauliflower and cut it into bigger size pieces.

Boil the cauliflower for 10 minutes until barely soft.

Cut the chicken breasts into thin strips and place them in a bowl.

Add 2 tablespoons of corn starch to the chicken and mix well.

Season the chicken with paprika, Cayenne, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, pepper, and tarragon.

Add 30 g of melted butter to the chicken and mix in.

Spread the chicken mixture in one layer in a baking dish.

Drain the cauliflower well to ensure it is dry.

Add the remaining melted butter to the cauliflower along with more spices.

Add 1 and 1/2 cups of heavy whipping cream to the cauliflower and mix well.

Add about 50 or 60 g of freshly grated Parmesan cheese to the cauliflower and mix it in.

Spread the cauliflower mixture evenly on top of the chicken in the baking dish.

Top with the remaining Parmesan cheese (40 to 50 g).

Bake the casserole in the oven at 375°F for 30 to 35 minutes, possibly up to 40 minutes, until golden and crispy on top.
