Equipment

  • 8x8-inch baking dish
  • mixing bowls
  • skillet
  • Cooking spray

Ingredients
  

  • 2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch cubes
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon curry powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper
  • 3 cups broccoli florets
  • 1 (10.5 ounce) can condensed cream of broccoli cheese soup
  • 1 (10.5 ounce) can condensed cream of chicken soup
  • ½ cup sour cream
  • ¼ cup milk
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice
  • 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1 cup crushed Ritz crackers
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F and spray or brush an 8x8-inch casserole dish with olive oil or cooking spray.
  • Season your chicken cubes with garlic powder, onion powder, curry powder, salt, and pepper, and combine so that the cubes are fully coated with this seasoning.
  • In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the chicken cubes until they are slightly browned and cooked through. This will take about 5-7 minutes. Transfer the chicken to a plate and set aside.
  • Fill a pot with water and bring it to a boil. Add in the fresh broccoli and boil them until they are fork-tender. This will take about 5 minutes. Drain and set aside.
  • In a mixing bowl, stir together the canned soups, sour cream, milk, lemon juice, and the cooked chicken from Step 3, along with the broccoli florets, until combined.
  • Add 1½ cups of cheese to the mixing bowl and combine.
  • Transfer the mixture to your prepared baking dish.
  • Add crumbled Ritz crackers on top.
  • Sprinkle the remaining cheddar cheese over the casserole mixture. Feel free to add more if you like.
  • Bake the casserole uncovered in the preheated oven at 350℉ for 30-35 minutes until the Ritz crackers turn golden brown and the casserole is hot and bubbly.
  • Let your chicken broccoli casserole sit for 8-10 minutes before serving. This dish can be served alone, with dinner rolls and a green salad, or over rice!
