Ingredients
  

  • 4 cups cooked chicken, chopped
  • 4 cups broccoli florets steamed
  • 2 cans cream of chicken soup 10.5 oz each
  • 1 cup mayonnaise
  • 1 tsp curry powder
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • 1.5 cups shredded cheddar cheese
  • 0.5 cup breadcrumbs
  • 2 tbsp butter, melted

Method
 

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F and grease a 9x13 baking dish.
  2. Steam the broccoli until just tender, then arrange it in the bottom of the dish. Top with the chopped cooked chicken.
  3. In a bowl, whisk together the cream of chicken soup, mayonnaise, curry powder, and lemon juice, then pour it evenly over the chicken.
  4. Sprinkle the cheddar cheese on top. Toss the breadcrumbs with the melted butter and scatter over the cheese.
  5. Bake for 30 to 35 minutes until bubbly and golden, and the dish is heated through to 165 degrees F. Let rest 5 minutes before serving.

Notes

Use rotisserie chicken to save time. For extra richness, add more cheese. The curry powder is subtle and signature to classic chicken divan; adjust to taste.
