Frozen broccoli and leftover chicken get an easy—but elegant—treatment in this. I dress things up with a saucy blend of cream soup and mayonnaise, then cover it all with a golden, cheesy crumb topping. —Bertille Cooper, California, Maryland

Ingredients

8 cups frozen broccoli florets or chopped broccoli
2 cans (10-3/4 ounces each) condensed cream of chicken soup, undiluted
1 cup mayonnaise
1 teaspoon lemon juice
3 cups cubed cooked chicken
1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
3/4 cup dry bread crumbs
3 tablespoons butter, melted
1 tablespoon sliced pimientos, optional

Directions

Preheat oven to 325°. In a large saucepan, cook broccoli in boiling water for 1 minute; drain. Set aside.
In a large bowl, combine soup, mayonnaise and lemon juice; add broccoli and chicken. Gently stir to combine; transfer to a greased 11x7-in. baking dish. Sprinkle with cheese. Combine bread crumbs and butter; sprinkle over the top.
Bake, uncovered, until bubbly and golden brown, about 30 minutes. Let stand for 10 minutes before serving. If desired, garnish with pimientos.
