(Courtesy of amysnewkitchen.blogspot)

Ingredients:
1 lb. pasta of your choice
1 c. chicken breasts, cooked and cubed
1 c. ham, cooked and cubed
1 1/2 c. milk
8 oz. cream cheese, softened
2 Tbsp. dried minced onion
2 c. swiss cheese, shredded
Salt and pepper
Cayenne pepper
1 c. panko bread crumbs
1/2 c. butter, melted

Directions:
Bring a large pot of water to a boil over medium high heat. Salt it and add the pasta; cook until al dente. Drain and return to the pot. Add in the chicken and ham and toss to combine.

Preheat the broiler. In a medium saucepan, combine the milk, cream cheese and minced onion over low-medium heat. Cook, stirring frequently, until it becomes a smooth texture (about 5 minutes). Stir into the pasta mixture. Stir in the Swiss cheese and season with salt and pepper to taste.

Transfer pasta to a baking dish and top with Panko crumbs. Pour melted butter over crumbs and broil until browned.
