Chicken Broccoli Supreme

I found this recipe off Pinterest, and another friend's blog.  It was delicious!  The picture is courtesy of google images because I forgot to take a picture:)  Enjoy!


INGREDIENTS:
1-lb fresh or frozen broccoli.  Break in pieces and steam for 2 minutes
3 cups cooked chicken – Break up into small pieces
1 tube Ritz crackers
½ cube melted butter
2 ½ cups grated cheddar cheese
SAUCE:
1/3 C. Butter melted
¼ C. Cornstarch, dissolved in ½ C. COLD water
1/3 C. Chicken Broth
¼ tsp. Salt
¼ tsp. Pepper
2 Cups Milk
1 ½ cups cheddar cheese

Directions:  In greased 9x13 pan, layer the broccoli and chicken, then set aside. In saucepan over medium heat, combine the melted butter, cornstarch dissolved in water, chicken broth, seasonings, and milk. Stir well, and continue stirring until sauce has thickened. Turn heat down to low, and add 1- 1/2 cups grated cheddar cheese. Stir until melted.  Pour sauce over the chicken and broccoli and top with the remaining 1 cup of grated cheddar cheese.

Crush the Ritz crackers in a Ziploc bag.  Don’t crush too small.  Add the crumbs to the melted butter.  Sprinkle the crumbs over the top of the grated cheese.  Bake uncovered at 350 degrees for about 30 minutes, or until hot and bubbly.
