This is a simple meal and a great way to feed your kids broccoli
4 chicken breasts
200g Green Isle Frozen Broccoli
2 x 295g tins of condensed chicken soup
1 heaped tbsp mayonnaise
1 tsp curry powder
130g cheddar cheese - grated
130g breadcrumbs
50g melted butter
Preheat oven to 190°C/375°F/Gas 5.
Place the chicken breasts into a saucepan of water and bring them to the boil. Cook at a simmer for 20 minutes until cooked. Allow to cool in the water and once cool, drain and cut into bite size pieces.
You can also use left over chicken here or fry the chicken if you are under time pressure. Although the result is far superior if you cook them in water as they are very moist and succulent.
Place the Green Isle Frozen Broccoli in a pan of boiling water to par cook. You should cook the florets for 4 minutes. Then remove and drain and put it back into ice cold water too stop cooking. Drain and set aside.
Place the broccoli and chicken pieces into an oven proof dish.
