Directions: |
Directions:You may use a 13x9 pan, or I usually use two smaller casserole dishes to make one and freeze one for later.Be sure to spray the pans with Pam. In a saucepan over medium heat, combine the melted butter, cornstarch dissolved in cold water, chicken broth and milk and seasonings. Stir well and continue stirring until sauce has thickened. Turn heat to low and and the 1 1/2 cups shredded cheese. Stir until melted.
Layer the broccoli and chicken in your pans, and pour sauce over evenly. Top with the other 1.1/2 cups shredded cheese.
Crush Ritz crackers in large zip lock bag with a rolling pin. Don't crush too fine. Add crumbs to the melted butter and sprinkle over the pans.
Bake uncovererd at 350 degrees for 30-45 minutes until sauce is bubbly and crumbs are deep brown.
If you are using two pans, wrap the second one well with plastic wrap and aluminum foil and freeze. Take out in the morning when you are ready to bake and let set out until you are ready to bake. |
