Time 2h50m

Yield 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

Nonstick cooking spray or butter, for the baking dish
4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 medium head broccoli, cut into small florets
2 cups cooked white rice
One 10-ounce can condensed cream of chicken soup
1 cup sour cream
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1 tablespoon lemon juice
10 ounces Cheddar, grated (about 2 1/2 cups)

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a 9-by-13-by-2-inch baking dish with nonstick cooking spray or butter.
  • Place the chicken in a large pot with water to cover. Add some salt, bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to a low simmer and cook the chicken until tender, about 45 minutes. Drain the chicken, cover, and refrigerate until cool, or up to 24 hours. Shred.
  • Meanwhile, bring a medium pot of generously salted water to a boil. Add the broccoli florets, and boil until crisp-tender, 2 to 3 minutes.
  • Spread the rice in an even layer in the baking dish. Make a second layer with the broccoli. In a large bowl, mix the chicken soup, the sour cream, mayonnaise, lemon juice, shredded chicken, half the Cheddar and some salt and pepper. Pour the mixture over the broccoli and top with the remaining Cheddar. Bake for 40 minutes; let stand for 5 minutes before serving.

My DH's absolute all time favorite meal! He could eat this every night if I let him. I always make this when we have guests, and they ask for the recipe every time! It will be nice to have it on here now so I can just print it out!!! If you freeze this please double the sauce, for some reason it gets a bit dry in the freezer.

Tips:

  • Choose the right chicken pieces: Boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs are best for this casserole. If you use bone-in chicken, be sure to remove the bones before cooking.
  • Cook the chicken thoroughly: The chicken should be cooked to an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit (74 degrees Celsius). You can check the temperature with a meat thermometer.
  • Don't overcook the broccoli: Broccoli should be cooked until it is tender-crisp. Overcooking will make it mushy.
  • Use a good quality cheese: The cheese is one of the main flavors in this casserole, so it's important to use a good quality cheese. Cheddar, Gruyère, and Parmesan are all good choices.
  • Serve the casserole hot: This casserole is best served hot out of the oven. You can garnish it with fresh parsley or chives.

Conclusion:

French Chicken Broccoli Casserole is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. It's also a great dish to serve to guests. The chicken is tender and flavorful, the broccoli is tender-crisp, and the cheese is melted and gooey. This casserole is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
