Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces chicken breasts
- 3 cups broccoli florets
- 1 can (10.5 oz) cream of chicken soup
- 1 cup sour cream
- 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 1 cup breadcrumbs
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
Bring a pot of salted water to a boil and blanch the broccoli florets for 2-3 minutes. Drain and set aside.
Season the chicken breasts with garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. In a skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of butter over medium heat and sear the chicken on both sides until lightly browned, about 2 minutes per side. Remove from heat and let rest for a few minutes, then slice into bite-sized pieces.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cream of chicken soup, sour cream, and 1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese. Mix well.
Stir the cooked broccoli and chicken pieces into the mixture, ensuring everything is evenly coated.
Transfer the mixture to a greased 9x13-inch baking dish, spreading it out into an even layer.
Sprinkle the remaining 1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese over the top.
In a small bowl, melt the remaining 1 tablespoon of butter. Mix it with the breadcrumbs until evenly coated. Sprinkle the breadcrumb mixture over the top of the casserole.
Bake the casserole in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbling and the breadcrumbs are golden brown.
Remove from the oven and let sit for 5 minutes before serving. Enjoy your Chicken Divine!
