I found this recipe on Pinterets (shocker!) and kind of tweaked it to my liking. I've tried many recipes like this one and they never really impressed. This recipe is probably one of the best things I have cooked in my adult life lol. This will definitely go on our family favorites list :)
Ingredients:
1 lb broccoli florets steamed
3 cups cooked bite size chicken
3 cups grated cheddar cheese divided
2 tubes ritz crackers
1 stick butter melted
Sauce Ingredients:
1/3 cup melted butter
1/4 cup cornstarch dissolved in 1/2 cup cold water
1/3 cup chicken broth
2 cups milk
1 1/2 cups cheddar cheese shredded
salt and pepper to taste
Directions:
In greased 13×9 pan, layer the broccoli and chicken, then set aside. In saucepan over medium heat, combine the melted butter, cornstarch dissolved in water, chicken broth, seasonings, and milk. Stir well, and continue stirring until sauce has thickened. Turn heat down to low, and add 1- 1/2 cups grated cheddar cheese. Stir until melted. Pour over the chicken and broccoli. Top with 1- 1/2 cups grated cheddar cheese.
Melt the butter and stir well. Crush Ritz crackers in large zip-lock bag with a rolling pin. Don’t crush too small. Add crumbs to the melted butter. Sprinkle crumbs over the top of the grated cheese.
Bake uncovered at 350 degrees for about 30 minutes, or until hot & bubbly.
