Easy Chicken Divan

The Mr.'s favorite dinner ... hands down.

Chicken Divan

It sounds elegant but is really very simple.  The recipe is below but here are the fly by directions:

 A layer of lightly steamed broccoli

Mix Cream of Chicken and Mayo with some lemon juice

 Layer some cooked chicken over brocolli

 Layer the cream mixture over the chicken

A layer of cheese:

 Melt butter in a dish & add Ritz or breadcrumbs

Layer that on top of cheese
 and bake 350 for 25-30 or until bubbly.  

NOW you serve this on a bed of egg noodles on your dish.  BUT ...  we ate it so fast I do not have a 'finish' photo!! Sorry!

Chicken Divan
1-2 heads of broccoli (or frozen)
1-2 cooked chicken breast - cubed
1 can cream of chicken soup
1/2 cup mayo
fresh squeezed lemon juice (1-2 tsp)
1/2 cup shredded cheese (yellow or orange)
8-10 Ritz crackers OR 1/2 cup breadcrumbs
2 Tbsp butter melted
