DIRECTIONS
-
Adjust the oven rack to the middle position, and preheat oven to 425°F.
-
Steam the head of cauliflower and broccoli by filling a large pot with about 2 cups of water and place a steamer basket in the bottom. Bring the water to a boil. Add the cauliflower and broccoli florets into the steamer basket. Cover the pot and steam until for about 5 minutes.
-
Meanwhile, in a large bowl add cooked chicken, cream cheese, half-half cream, Simon's Secret Sauce, mozzarella, garlic powder, onion powder, salt and freshly ground black pepper. Mix everything together to combine.
-
Remove the cauliflower and broccoli from the heat and place in the cream cheese mixture bowl. It’s not necessary to let the cauliflower and broccoli cool down. They’ll help to melt the cheese.
-
Spoon the cauliflower and broccoli mixture into an oiled casserole dish and top with remaining mozzarella cheese. Bake uncovered for 10-15 minutes or until the cheese is melted.
-
If you prefer your dish to be a little bit browned on the top, you can turn the broiler on high for the final 3 minutes and broil it. Keep a close eye on it, so that it does not burn.
