Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups (shredded or diced) Cooked chicken breast
- 3 cups Fresh broccoli florets
- 1 can (10.5 ounces) Cream of chicken soup
- 1 cup Sour cream
- 1.5 cups Sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Onion powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Ground black pepper
- 0.5 cup Breadcrumbs
- 2 tablespoons Butter, melted
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish lightly with cooking spray or butter.
Steam or blanch the broccoli florets in salted water until tender-crisp, about 3-4 minutes. Drain and set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cream of chicken soup, sour cream, 1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Mix well to create a creamy sauce.
Add the cooked chicken and broccoli to the sauce mixture, and stir gently to coat evenly.
Transfer the chicken and broccoli mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it out evenly.
Sprinkle the remaining 0.5 cup of shredded cheddar cheese over the top of the mixture.
In a small bowl, mix the breadcrumbs with the melted butter until combined, then evenly sprinkle on top of the cheese layer.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the casserole is hot and bubbly and the breadcrumb topping is golden brown.
Remove from the oven, let rest for 5 minutes, and serve warm. Enjoy!
