Welcome to the channel and introduce the recipe for cheesy chicken broccoli casserole.

Use a rotisserie chicken, remove the meat, and shred it using a stand mixer.

Add avocado oil to a pan and heat to medium-high.

Add mushrooms to the pan and cook for about 2 minutes.

Add broccoli and garlic to the pan, season with salt, pepper, basil, and oregano, and cook for an additional 3 minutes until the broccoli starts to soften.

In a small pot, combine 1 cup of broth with heavy cream and xanthan gum, mixing until combined.

Add parmesan cheese and mozzarella cheese to the sauce and mix until it starts to thicken.

Taste the veggies and sauce, adding salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and chili flakes to season to taste.

Prepare a baking dish by spraying it with avocado oil.

Layer the shredded chicken in the baking dish, followed by the cooked veggies, and then pour the creamy sauce over the top.

Top the casserole with additional mozzarella cheese for a golden brown finish.

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).

Cover the casserole with aluminum foil and bake for 15 minutes.

Remove the foil and check the casserole, then serve it with sides like cauli mash or stuffed peppers.
