Ingredients:

– 3 quarts water;

– 1 (12-ounce) package broccoli florets;

– 4 (6-ounce) skinless, boneless chicken breast halves;

– 1 (12-ounce) can evaporated fat-free milk;

– 1/4 cup all-purpose flour (about 1 ounce);

– 1/4 teaspoon salt;

– 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper;

– Dash of nutmeg;

– 1 cup fat-free mayonnaise or Greek yogurt;

– 1/2 cup fat-free sour cream;

– 1/4 cup dry sherry;

– 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce;

Instructions for this delicious easy chicken recipe:

1. Preheat oven to 400°. Bring water to a boil in a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add broccoli, and cook 5 minutes or until crisp-tender. If you have a vegetable steamer, use that- it’s sometimes a bit more convenient.

2. Transfer broccoli to a large bowl and add chicken to boiling water; reduce heat, and simmer 15 minutes or until done. Transfer chicken to a cutting board; cool slightly. Cut chicken into bite-sized pieces, and add chicken to bowl with broccoli.

3. Combine evaporated milk, flour, salt, pepper, and nutmeg in a saucepan, stirring with a whisk until smooth. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat; cook 1 minute, stirring constantly. Remove from heat. Add mayonnaise, next 4 ingredients (through soup), and 1/2 cup cheese, stirring until well combined. Add mayonnaise mixture to broccoli mixture; stir gently until combined.

4. Spoon mixture into a 13 x 9-inch baking dish coated with cooking spray. Sprinkle with remaining 1/2 cup cheese. Bake at 400° for 50 minutes or until mixture bubbles at the edges and cheese begins to brown.
