Notes: This is an easy method for chicken divan, but I usually prefer to make the white sauce/cheese sauce for a creamier dish.
Making the white sauce, you first heat the butter and flour until well-blended then add the milk, and stir until it begins to thicken, then add the cheese until it is well-blended and creamy. The recipe is in this book in the sauce section.
Substitute: when I made this recentlyand discovered I didn't have the broccoli when I already had the sauce made and the chicken pre-cooked ( I like to brown it slightly). So without broccoli, I used frozen spinach instead! It was great and actually added a different flavor to the dish. I would think you might substitute most any vegetable or vegetables.
