One of my favourite casseroles! This is a dish that was often cooked in our house growing up. It's delicious on it's own or served over rice or pasta. It's hearty enough to be served as a main course. This recipe fills a 9X13 pan. Ingredients:
3 large chicken breasts |
2 cups broccoli |
1 onion, chopped |
2 cups fresh mushrooms (or 1 can) |
1 (10 ounce) can cream of chicken soup |
1/2 cup water |
1 garlic clove, chopped |
1 cup sharp cheddar cheese, shredded |
salt and pepper |
Directions:
1. Cook and season chicken with salt and pepper. Boil, bake, steam, or fry. I prefer baking but because of time I often fry with a little olive oil. Chop and set aside.
2. Cook broccoli. Steam or boil - no need to season. Leave in spears or large florets.
3. Saute onion and garlic just until slightly soft. 3-5 minutes.
4. Mix can of cream of chicken soup with water.
5. Layer in 13X9 pan. Chopped chicken on the bottom, followed by broccoli, onion/garlic, mushrooms, soup mixture, salt and pepper, and cheddar cheese on top. Additionally you can add toasted breadcrumbs on top of the cheese if you wish.
6. Bake at 350 degrees for 30 minutes.
