Mom s Creamy Chicken & Broccoli Casserole

This lightened-up creamy chicken casserole is packed with veggies. The sauce at the heart of this family-friendly casserole uses fat-free milk with a combination of fat-free Greek-style yogurt and a little mayonnaise to give it body.

Ingredients:

  • 1 (12-ounce) package steam-in-bag broccoli florets
  • 1 tablespoon neutral oil, such as canola or avocado
  • 1 cup prechopped onion
  • 2 (8-ounce) packages presliced mushrooms
  • 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 1 ½ cups fat-free milk
  • 12 ounces chopped skinless, boneless rotisserie chicken breast (about 3 cups)
  • ½ cup plain fat-free greek yogurt
  • ¼ cup canola mayonnaise
  • ½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 2 ounces sharp cheddar cheese, shredded (about 1/2 cup)
  • 1 ounce parmesan cheese, grated (about 1/4 cup)

Directions:

  1. Preheat broiler.
  2. Prepare broccoli in microwave according to package directions.
  3. Heat a large ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat. Add oil to pan; swirl to coat. Add onion and mushrooms; cook 12 minutes or until mushrooms brown and liquid evaporates, stirring occasionally. Sprinkle mushroom mixture with flour; cook 1 minute, stirring constantly. Stir in milk. Bring to a boil; cook 3 minutes or until thick and bubbly. Stir in broccoli and chicken; cook 1 minute. Remove pan from heat. Stir in yogurt, mayonnaise, pepper, and salt. Top evenly with cheeses; broil 2 minutes.
