This is the recipe I grew up with. No cans of condensed soup, mayonnaise or velveeta here! Ingredients:
1 lb broccoli floret, steamed |
1/4 cup butter |
1/4 cup flour |
1 cup chicken broth |
1 cup milk |
1/8 teaspoon nutmeg |
1/2 cup parmesan cheese, grated |
3 tablespoons dry sherry (or white wine) |
2 lbs chicken breasts, cooked and sliced |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Lightly butter a 9X13 glass dish or shallow casserole.
2. In a saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat and add flour. Stir for one minute.
3. Add the broth and milk gradually until the sauce is thickened.
4. Add the nutmeg, half of the cheese and the sherry or wine. Stir until the cheese melts and remove from heat.
5. Place the broccoli in the prepared pan or dish and sprinkle the remaining cheese over it.
6. Place the chicken slices evenly over the cheese.
7. Bake about 30 minutes, or until slightly bubbly and golden brown.
