Curried Chicken and Broccoli Casserole image

This chicken and broccoli casserole is my 13-year-old son's favorite dish and the one he requests for every one of his birthdays. It is very good and combines the creamy texture of the cheese sauce with the crunchy texture of the corn flakes. It is a standby meal and easy to make, freeze, and bake at a later date. You can freeze it up to 6 months. If frozen, bake uncovered for 1 hour.

Time 1h

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 11

cooking spray (such as Pam®)
1 bunch broccoli, cut into chunks - or more to taste
1 (3 pound) cooked rotisserie chicken, meat removed from bones and chopped
2 (10.75 ounce) cans cream of chicken soup
1 cup mayonnaise
¼ cup lemon juice
1 teaspoon curry powder
salt and ground black pepper to taste
1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese
1 cup crushed corn flakes cereal
¼ cup slivered almonds

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spray a 9x13-inch baking dish with cooking spray.
  • Place broccoli into a microwave-safe dish with a lid, pour in a small amount of water, cover, and cook on high in microwave until broccoli is steaming and bright green, 2 to 3 minutes. Carefully remove lid and spread broccoli into the bottom of the prepared baking dish. Spread cooked chicken in a layer over the broccoli.
  • Whisk cream of chicken soup, mayonnaise, lemon juice, curry powder, salt, and black pepper in a bowl and pour sauce over the chicken and broccoli. Spread the Cheddar cheese over the sauce and sprinkle casserole with corn flake crumbs and almonds.
  • Bake uncovered in the preheated oven until the casserole is bubbling, the cheese has melted, and the crumb topping is browned, about 30 minutes.
