- Pour the beaten eggs slowly into the sauce, stirring continuously, until the sauce is creamy.
- Add the sliced pickles to the casserole dish with the chicken and ham.
- Pour the creamy sauce over the casserole, ensuring the chicken and ham are well-coated.
- If desired, add additional vegetables around the meat.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes, or until the casserole is bubbling and golden.
