Chicken Broccoli Divan
This recipe can be adapted in so many ways. Links to the shortcuts are listed in the Recipe Notes section.
Ingredients
- 4 cups broccoli, florests and stems, bit size pieces, cooked
- 2 cups chicken, cubed, cooked
- 1 can condensed cream of mushroom soup, OR make from a shortcut
- 1/3 cup milk
- 1/2 cup Cheddar cheese, grated (more if you like cheese!)
- 2 tablespoons dry bread crumbs, OR use the shortcut on this site
- 1 tablespoon butter, melted
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 230 C.
- Boil or steam the broccoli and measure out 4 cups and add to a standard pie pan (23 cm/9 inch).
- Boil your chicken, thighs and legs would be nice in this dish, then de-bone them and cube, add to the pie pan and mix a bit with the broccoli. If you add some chicken bones you saved from another recipe, add those to the pot along with some celery and carrot and make stock while you cook the chicken for use in another recipe.
- Mix the soup and milk in a small bowl and pour mixture over the broccoli and chicken. Sprinkle the Cheddar cheese over the top.
- Mix the bread crumbs and melted butter in a small bowl, sprinkle that over the cheese.
- Bake for 20 minutes or until the mixture is hot and bubbling. Let cool for 10 minutes and serve. A green salad would work well with this.
Notes
Chicken quarters are about 57 Baht/kilo, buy a kilo and go with that. Broccoli I will mention as that is import item and is 55 Baht/kilo. For 4 servings this would be about 83 cents per serving, the cheese is minimal with 1/2 cup.
