Chicken and Vegetable Casserole

Casserole with chicken and vegetables is a delightful dish of European cuisine that combines tender chicken fillet, fresh vegetables, and soft cottage cheese. Its roots trace back to home cooking traditions where casseroles serve as a simple yet nutritious solution for family dinners. The light texture of the chicken mince pairs perfectly with juicy zucchini and sweet peppers, while the cottage cheese adds creaminess and tenderness to the flavor. Added spices like curry give the dish a slight spicy note. This casserole is ideal as a balanced meal for healthy eating—rich in protein and beneficial vegetables while remaining airy and light. Served hot, it can be complemented with fresh herbs or a light yogurt-based sauce to enhance the flavor.
