Stir in the chicken-vegetable mixture and heat thoroughly. Toss with cooked pasta and top with grated Parmesan cheese, if desired. (Approximately 5 minutes)
For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a splash of dry sherry or white wine to the sauce while it simmers.
Feel free to substitute other cheeses, such as Gruyere or Fontina, for a unique twist.
If you prefer a richer sauce, use heavy cream instead of half-and-half.
To make ahead, assemble the casserole and refrigerate it until ready to bake. Add an extra 10-15 minutes to the baking time.
Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
