Preparation

Step 1

Instructions
Cook potatoes in Microwave Ready pack according to package directions (setting seasoning pack aside to add to the sauce). Set aside to cool completely (I even stick mine in the fridge for a bit so they’re easier to slice).
Make the sauce: in a medium pot, melt the butter over medium heat. Stir in the flour and cook 1 minute, whisking. Add the milk, and whisk until smooth. Continue cooking over medium heat, whisking, until milk is thickened. Season with salt and Savoury Herb seasoning pack. Set aside.
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F and lightly grease 4 individual casserole dishes (mine were about 5” in diameter).
Place one spoonful of sauce in the bottom of each dish. Top with a layer of potatoes (you will make 2 layers in each, so you’ll want to save half of the potatoes for your second layers). Top with half of the chicken and ham (divided between the 4 dishes).
Add another layer of potatoes on top, using up remaining potatoes. Top with remaining ham and chicken (divided between the 4 dishes), and remaining sauce (again, divided between the 4 dishes).
Bake for 20-30 minutes until hot and bubbly around the edges. Sprinkle each with cheese and broil for 1-2 minutes until golden brown. Garnish with parsley if desired. Serve.
