How to Make Chicken Broccoli Casserole
Getting this casserole together is very simple. Layer the broccoli and cooked chicken in the dish, then cover with the creamy soup mixture and top with bread crumbs and cheese. It is ready for the oven in no time and is so good!
Step 1: Preheat oven to 350° F and prepare a 9x13 inch baking pan with non-stick cooking spray.
Step 2: Cook the broccoli (I used frozen broccoli florets) according to the directions on the package and drain well. Arrange cook broccoli in a prepared 9x13 inch baking pan.
Step 3: Arrange cooked chicken pieces on top of the broccoli.
Step 4: Combine the soup, mayonnaise, lemon juice and curry powder and mix well. Spread the mixture over the top of the broccoli and chicken, then add the bread crumbs to the top of the mixture.
