Tips:

Mise en place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all of your ingredients and equipment ready to go. This will help you stay organized and make the cooking process go more smoothly. Use a large baking dish: This will ensure that the chicken and ham have enough room to cook evenly. Don't overcrowd the baking dish: If you overcrowd the baking dish, the chicken and ham will not cook evenly. Use a meat thermometer: This is the best way to ensure that the chicken and ham are cooked to a safe internal temperature. Let the chicken and ham rest before serving: This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, making it more tender and flavorful. Serve with your favorite sides: This dish can be served with a variety of sides, such as mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or rice.
