How to Make Savory Chicken And Broccoli Casserole

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Grease a 9x13 inch casserole dish.
  2. Cook 1 pound pasta according to package directions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
  3. While pasta cooks, melt 4 tablespoons of butter in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add 1 medium onion, chopped, and sauté until tender, about 3 minutes.
  4. Stir in 4 tablespoons of all-purpose flour and cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly.
  5. Gradually whisk in 2 cups of chicken broth, stirring until smooth.
  6. Slowly stir in 1 cup of milk. Continue stirring until the sauce thickens to your desired consistency.
  7. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  8. In the prepared casserole dish, layer the cooked pasta, 2 cups of cooked chicken (shredded or diced), and 3 cups of broccoli florets.
  9. Pour the sauce evenly over the broccoli.
  10. Combine 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese and ½ cup shredded mozzarella cheese. Sprinkle half of the cheese mixture over the casserole.
  11. Bake for 20 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  12. Remove from oven, sprinkle with the remaining cheese, and let stand for 5 minutes before serving.
