Nixon Chicken Casserole

Nixon Chicken Casserole

Nixon Chicken Casserole is a 1970s classic, filled with chunks of chicken and broccoli, a creamy sauce, cheddar cheese, and breadcrumbs.

You'll need: chicken breast frozen broccoli  cream of chicken soup  mayonnaise lemon juice curry powder breadcrumbs butter  shredded cheddar cheese

Bring a saucepan of water to a boil and lower to a simmer. Add the chicken breasts and cook through. Let the chicken cool slightly and chop into 1-inch pieces. (You can also skip this step and use rotisserie chicken.)

Meanwhile, steam the broccoli until tender.  Then, whisk together the cream of chicken soup, mayonnaise, lemon juice, and curry powder.

In a small bowl, stir the breadcrumbs and melted butter together.

Preheat oven to 350°F and prepare a 13×9-inch dish with cooking spray. Place the broccoli in the bottom of the prepared dish. Top with the chopped chicken.

Pour the cream of chicken soup mixture over the top.

Top with the shredded cheddar, then the breadcrumb mixture. Bake for 25 minutes at 350°F and serve!  For the full recipe, tap "Get the recipe" below.
