Directions: |
Directions:Tear your chicken breasts into pieces. These breasts can be steamed or cooked in the skillet or whatever works best for you. Set the chicken aside. Take your broccoli florets and blanch them in boiling water for about for five minutes. You want them to be tender but not overcook. Remove from water and drain. Set them aside. In a bowl combine the soup, mayonnaise, sour cream, pinch of pepper and celery salt. Add the chicken and the juice of one lemon and fold to mix thoroughly. Fold in about half of the cheddar cheese. In a baking or casserole dish heavily greased with butter spread the rice evenly over the bottom. Next place the broccoli on top of the rice. Add the chicken mixture on top and spread out evenly and then sprinkle the remaining cheddar cheese on top. Place in preheated 350° oven for 40 to 45 minutes until bubbly and delicious looking.
This dish can be made ahead of time and place in the refrigerator. If you do make sure to take it out and let it set long enough to reach room temperature. If you're in a hurry you can go ahead and cook it while it's cold in the center but you'll have to extend your cooking time. It's best to let it return to room temperature.
For nice variation you can go ahead and put all of the cheese into the mix and then once the dishes been put together cover the top with crushed potato chips. I love this variation it reminds me of when I was in grade school. The crushed potato chips at a nice texture. |

Notes: This is truly old-fashioned comfort food. It is not going to be on anyones diet but it's really good. It's a combination of a dish I liked in grade school and one I made as a young man. It's great for a cold winter day. Kids really like the potato chip variation.
