Healthy Recipes Healthy Ingredient Recipes Healthy Vegetable Recipes Healthy Cabbage Recipes Cheesy Chicken & Cabbage Casserole Be the first to rate & review! This cheesy chicken and cabbage casserole is creamy and briny with plenty of savory flavors thanks to sauerkraut and kielbasa. Gruyère (or Swiss) cheese adds a nutty flavor to the dish, while rye breadcrumbs on top give it a hint of caraway and a nice crunch.

Coat a broiler-safe 9-by-13-inch baking dish with cooking spray. Heat oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add kielbasa and cook, stirring occasionally, until crispy, about 2 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the kielbasa to one half of a paper-towel-lined plate (do not wipe out the pot). Add chicken to the pot and cook, stirring occasionally, until lightly browned but not completely cooked, about 4 minutes. With the slotted spoon, transfer the chicken to the other half of the plate with the kielbasa, reserving the drippings in the pot. Add cabbage and onion to the drippings in the pot; cook, stirring occasionally, until tender, about 5 minutes. Stir in sauerkraut, mustard, pepper and salt. Sprinkle with flour and cook, stirring constantly, until well incorporated, about 1 minute. Add milk and cook, stirring constantly and scraping to release any browned bits from the bottom of the pot, until simmering and thickened, about 4 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in 1 1/2 cups cheese. Stir in the chicken. Transfer to the prepared baking dish. Sprinkle with the kielbasa, breadcrumbs and the remaining 1/2 cup cheese. Bake on the center rack until bubbling and the chicken is completely cooked through, about 20 minutes. Turn the oven to broil and move the casserole to the top rack. Broil until browned on top, about 1 minute. Let stand for 5 minutes before serving.

Percent Daily Value (%DV) found on nutrition labels tells you how much a serving of a particular food or recipe contributes to each of those total recommended amounts. Per the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the daily value is based on a standard 2,000 calorie diet. Depending on your calorie needs or if you have a health condition, you may need more or less of particular nutrients. (For example, it’s recommended that people following a heart-healthy diet eat less sodium on a daily basis compared to those following a standard diet.)
