Creamy Low Carb Chicken Casserole

Print Recipe

This low-carb casserole is creamy, cozy, and completely satisfying. It’s loaded with juicy chicken, smoky bacon, and a choice of broccoli or spinach—plus a cheesy ranch base with extra flavor from garlic and optional seasoning. We’ve doubled the batch and added a few twists for richness and depth, all while keeping it low on carbs and high on comfort.

Ingredients

Scale

For the casserole:

8 cups cooked, diced or shredded chicken breast

16 slices cooked bacon, chopped

10 cups broccoli florets or 2 lbs thawed, drained spinach

1 cup roasted red peppers, chopped (optional twist)

1 onion, sautéed or caramelized (optional twist)

6 cloves garlic, minced

2 cups ranch dressing (look for low-carb or homemade)

4 oz cream cheese, softened (adds creaminess)

1 cup shredded mozzarella

1 cup shredded cheddar

2–3 tsp ranch seasoning mix (optional for added flavor)

For the topping:

1 cup shredded mozzarella

1 cup shredded cheddar

Optional: crushed pork rinds or almond flour for a keto crunch

Instructions

Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9×13-inch (or larger) casserole dish.

Lightly steam or sauté broccoli until tender-crisp, or drain spinach thoroughly if using.

In a large bowl, mix chicken, bacon, veggies, garlic, ranch, cream cheese, and cheeses. Add seasoning mix if using.

Spread mixture into prepared dish. Top with remaining mozzarella and cheddar. Add crunchy topping if desired.

Bake uncovered for 25–30 minutes, until golden and bubbly. Let cool slightly before serving.
