Ingredients

  • 4 chicken breasts (about 2 pounds (or 3 cups cooked chicken), cut into bite size pieces)
  • 1 Tablespoon olive oil (if using raw chicken breasts)
  • 1 ½-2 pounds broccoli (cut into bite sized pieces)
  • 1 ½ cups cheddar cheese (shredded, divided)
  • 10 ½ ounces condensed cream of mushroom soup (1 can (or cream of chicken soup))
  • ⅔ cup sour cream
  • ½ cup milk
  • ½ teaspoon each garlic powder, onion powder, dry mustard powder, and pepper
  • ¼ teaspoon kosher salt
  • 3 Tablespoons Panko bread crumbs (or buttery crackers (like Ritz crackers))

  1. 1

    Preheat oven to 400°F. Grease a 9x13 baking dish (or a 3 quart casserole dish).

    Meanwhile, place broccoli in a large pot boiling water and cook 2-3 minutes or just until tender crisp. Drain well and put in the bottom of the baking dish.

  4. 4

    Meanwhile, in a large bowl, combine 1 cup cheddar cheese, soup, sour cream, milk, and seasonings. Stir in chicken and spread on top of broccoli in baking or casserole dish. Sprinkle with remaining cheese.

  5. 5

    In a small bowl, mix bread crumbs and butter. Sprinkle over the cheese.

  6. 6

    Bake 20-22 minutes, or until the breadcrumbs are lightly browned and the mixture is bubbly and hot.

    Serve over rice, noodles, or mashed potatoes, as desired.
