Skinny Chicken Broccoli Casserole
My Skinny Chicken Broccoli Casserole is the best! It’s easy! It’s fast! It’s filling! And for all its ease, it still looks, feels and tastes like a recipe that just came out of your grandma’s oven! This one is just too good! This is one to warm you up on a cold winter night and will keep the kids at the dinner table for seconds! I love this casserole just as it is, but you can definitely serve it on top of brown rice! If you are watching carbs, this is just as tasty sans the cracker crumbs on top! If you are looking for more fun, family-pleasing casseroles packed with broccoli-cheese flavor, try my Skinny Baked Mac and Cheese with Broccoli!
Prep time: 20 minutes

Ingredients
- 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 14.4 oz package frozen broccoli, broken apart
- 10.75 oz can reduced-fat cream of mushroom soup
- 2 Tbsp fat-free mayonnaise
- 1/2 cup reduced-fat, shredded cheddar cheese

Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Cut chicken into bite sized pieces.
- In a large skillet, sprayed with cooking spray, place pieces of chicken in skillet and cook over medium-high heat until there is no more pink in the centers (about 10 minutes).
- In a large bowl, combine mayo, cream of mushroom soup, frozen broccoli, and shredded cheese. Stir.
- Add chicken to broccoli mixture and stir until everything is coated evenly.
- Pour contents of bowl into a 9x13 inch baking dish lightly sprayed with cooking spray.
- Now, this next step is optional - but I did it once and it stuck. Sprinkle cracker crumbles over the top of the mixture to add some crunch.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes.
