Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with cooking spray or butter.
Arrange the steamed broccoli florets evenly in the bottom of the baking dish.
Layer the shredded cooked chicken over the broccoli.
In a mixing bowl, combine the cream of chicken soup, mayonnaise, sour cream, curry powder, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper. Mix until smooth and well blended.
Pour the curry sauce evenly over the chicken and broccoli in the baking dish, spreading it out with a spatula to ensure everything is coated.
Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the top of the curry mixture.
In a small bowl, combine the breadcrumbs and melted butter, tossing to coat the breadcrumbs evenly.
Sprinkle the buttered breadcrumbs over the cheese layer.
Bake the casserole in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the top is golden and bubbly.
Remove from the oven and let it sit for 5 minutes before serving.
Serve warm as a hearty main dish and enjoy!
