Ingredients
  

  • 3 cups cooked diced chicken rotisserie chicken works great!
  • 4 cups broccoli florets steamed
  • 1 can 10.5 oz condensed cream of chicken soup
  • 1 cup grated cheddar cheese
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon curry powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 cup coarsely crushed Corn Flakes cereal
  • 2 tablespoons salted butter melted

Instructions
 

  • Preheat The Oven: Set the oven temperature to 350°F (175°C). Grease and save a 9 x 13-inch baking dish.
  • Prepare The Sauce: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the condensed cream of chicken soup, milk, salt, pepper, curry powder, and garlic powder until smooth. This is the base of your flavorful sauce.
  • Assemble The Dish: Spread the steamed broccoli evenly across the bottom of the prepared baking dish. Then, layer the cooked diced chicken over the broccoli.
  • Add The Sauce: Pour the creamy sauce over the chicken and broccoli, making sure everything is well-coated.
  • Top With Cheese: Sprinkle the grated cheddar cheese evenly over the top of the dish. This will create that deliciously gooey, cheesy layer.
  • Cornflake Topping: In a small bowl, combine the crushed Corn Flakes cereal with the melted butter. Mix well, then sprinkle this crunchy topping over the cheese layer.
  • Bake: Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the cheese is bubbly.
  • Serve: Let the Chicken Divan cool for a few minutes before serving. It pairs wonderfully with cooked rice, mashed potatoes, or buttered noodles. For a splash of color, do not forget to add some fresh parsley on top!
