Chicken Broccoli Supreme
Ingredients
- 2-3 heads of fresh broccoli (cut into florets, steamed for 2 minutes)
- 3 cups cubed cooked chicken
- 1/2 cup grated cheddar cheese
Crumb Topping:
- 1 tube Ritz crackers (38 crackers (or a similar brand))
- 3 tablespoons butter (melted)
- 1 tablespoon poppy seeds
Sauce:
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 3 tablespoons flour
- 2 cups milk
- 1/3 cup chicken broth
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon pepper
- 1 cup grated cheddar cheese
Instructions
- In greased 13x9 pan, layer the broccoli and chicken, then set aside.
To make the sauce:
- Melt the butter in a medium saucepan over medium-low heat. When it's melted, add in the flour and stir until smooth. Over medium heat, whisk continuously for a few minutes. Gradually add the milk and chicken broth. Season with salt and pepper. Continue to cook over medium heat and stir continuously until the mixture thickens. Whisk in the 1 cup of grated cheese. Pour over the chicken and broccoli. Top with the 1/2 cup of cheese
To make the crumb topping:
- Melt the 3 tablespoons of butter, then add the poppy seeds and stir. Crush the Ritz crackers in a large zip-lock bag. Don't crush to finely, leave some bigger pieces of cracker. Add crumbs to the melted butter and stir. Sprinkle crumb topping over the casserole.
- Bake uncovered at 350 degrees for 25-30 minutes, or until hot and bubbly.
- Enjoy
