Chicken Divan

Chicken Divan.  Ever had it?  I like to think the dish was invented by my own momma, as I’ve never had it anywhere else.  It was definitely a family favorite growing up.

• Stuffing mix and butter
• Rice
• 3-4 chicken breasts
• 2 cans Cream of Broccoli Cheese
• 1 thing of Broccoli.  Are they called heads?!
• Monterey Jack Cheese

Get your broccoli cut up and steaming.  Don’t steam it too long because it’s still going to cook in the oven.  You don’t want mushy broccoli!

Start your rice

Dump your stuffing mix into a bowl and add some melted butter.  Like, 1/4 cup butter

Now spread some of that mixture on the bottom of your baking dish and set the sauce aside

Cut up your chicken and add it to the top of your broccoli cheese soup mixture

Add your steamed broccoli

Pour the rest of your broccoli cheese soup mixture over the top of the broccoli and chicken

I usually sprinkle shredded Monterey Jack cheese on top of the Chicken Divan before I add the stuffing. It’s preference though, good with or without it!  My family loves it, I just forgot to add it!

Serve on top of rice!

Now that picture doesn’t do the dish justice.  Mostly because I’m not a photographer and so the colors look a little weird!  This is soooo yummy though and a great way to get those kiddos to eat their broccoli!

ENJOY!  If you make it I’d love to know how you liked it!
