Chicken Broccoli Casserole

I like Chicken Broccoli Casserole, but I don't like using canned "cream of" soups. Today I found a couple of recipes online, and tweaked them a little for our dinner. Most of the kids liked this. Bentley said it was "better than he thought it would be." Milo ate 2 helpings.

Ingredients:

2 cooked and shredded boneless skinless chicken breasts

1 16 oz package frozen broccoli

3 TBSP butter

3 TBSP flour

3/4 tsp salt

2 1/2 cups milk

1/4 - 1/2 tsp lemon pepper seasoning

1/4 cup sour cream

1/4 cup mayo

2 cups grated cheddar cheese

1/4 cup butter

1 cup crushed Townhouse Crackers

Method:

Melt the 3 TBSP butter in a medium saucepan. Add the flour, salt, and pepper. Stir to combine and cook for another minute or two. Wisc in the milk and continue to stir until mixture thickens and boils. Add sour cream and mayo. Stir in the shredded cheese until melted. Add broccoli and shredded chicken. Pour into greased casserole dish (I used a 9 or 10 inch round glass dish). Melt 1/4 cup butter and stir in crackers. Sprinkle over casserole. Bake 30 minutes at 350 degrees.

Serve over cooked rice or egg noodles.
